This is a basic Backtalk question to which I kept forgetting the 
answer, so I thought I'd post this item for the benefit of my future 
forgetful self and all Grex posterity.

Q: When entering a reponse to a conference item, how do you embed a 
link to an earlier response? (Such links are most useful when using the 
web interface, but even in Fronttalk can be helpful to indicate the 
context of your response.)

A: In your reponse text include the following string on a line by 
itself: "resp:<reference response number>"

(Do not include the quotation marks; substitute the number of the 
response you are referencing in place of <reference response number>)

For example,

resp:47

will add a link to response #47 to your response.
 

1 responses total.

Also, you can link to responses in other items or conferences with strings
like:

    resp:[[<conference>:[<item number>:]<response number>

You can link to a whole item with:

    item:[<conference>:]<item number>

And a whole conference with:

    conf:<conference>
