### 20.2.2 Specifying whether to include trails of links

To have Mif2Go create trails of links, specify the following setting:

[Trails]

; MakeTrail = No (default) or Yes (enable use of <$_trail>)

MakeTrail=Yes

The default setting, MakeTrail=No, ensures that the overhead of collecting information to construct trails will not be imposed if you do not use this feature.

When MakeTrail=Yes, Mif2Go creates a trail for any heading (or other paragraph format) for which both of the following are true:

• The format is assigned the [HtmlStyles]Trail and Title properties
(see §20.2.3 Specifying what to include in trails of links)

• Either of the following is true:

– The format is assigned the [HtmlStyles]Split property
(see §18.2.1 Designating split points)

– [Trails]SplitTrail=Yes
(see §20.2.5 Specifying where to display trails of links).

For both split and extracted files, and for the original file, predefined macro <$_trail> causes insertion of a trail according to the settings in [Trails]. The trail is always to the first paragraph in the file. Mif2Go inserts trails only if MakeTrail=Yes.
