does anyone know of a knowledge management tool (Tiddlywiki, Roam) that allows you make linkable identifiers in code blocks? for example, if I have this code
Copy code
data Path a = Path Bool [PathSegment a] a
I want to make
PathSegment
linkable and have its definition in another tiddler/block/entry, etc.

We're experimenting with linking to/from code segments in NextJournal, but it'll be months before we have anything polished enough to show off.

the features sound great

The first place I heard of such a feature was Charles Simonyi's "Intentional Domain Workbench". Here's a video about that, and he talks about identity apart from naming at about 45min in:

I think the easiest option for me right now will be to implement a tiddlywiki plugin

I just remembered that I made this thing long ago, and it seems to have links in code fragments: http://akkartik.name/countPaths.html

didn’t github add this feature for some languages using some incremental parser they open sourced? can’t remember off the top of my head

the general idea is that I’d like a knowledge management system that would allow me to link to things from code most likely I need to write a plugin that looks for link markers in a code block as a pre-processing step
