Dear Galaxy development team,
I have set up a customized instance of Galaxy at the University of Tuebingen, Germany. I wondered, if it is possible to add links to other Galaxy tools in the help section of a certain tool. This would make sense for tools that are applied successively in a workflow. Is it possible to add links to tools naturally preceeding or succeeding a certain tool in a workflow? This would make the workflow structure more obvious for the user.
Kind regards, Johannes
Johannes
As an example, you can use the following url
http://www.yourgalaxy.org/tool_runner?tool_id=bed2gff1
in order to creat a link to the BED-to-GFF tool in "www.yourgalaxy.org" (or whatever your local url is)
within the help section you can the write something like:
<help> This tool allows you to do something
----
do nextstep_.
.. _nextstep: http://www.yourgalaxy.org/tool_runner?tool_id=bed2gff1
</help>
</tool>
Regards, Hans
