     3Trac supports a convenient way to refer to resources of other Trac servers, from within the Wiki markup. An !InterTrac link can be seen as a scoped TracLinks.

    27 That target environment name is either the real name of the
    28 environment, or an alias for it.
     19That target environment name is either the real name of the environment or an alias for it.
    2920The aliases are defined in `trac.ini` (see below).
    3021The prefix is case insensitive.
    3122
    32 If the InterTrac link is enclosed in square brackets (like `[th:WikiExtrasPlugin]`), the InterTrac prefix is removed in the displayed link, like a normal link resolver would be (i.e. the above would be displayed as `WikiExtrasPlugin`).

    34 For convenience, there's also some alternative short-hand form,
    35 where one can use an alias as an immediate prefix
    36 for the identifier of a ticket, changeset or report:
    37 (e.g. `#T234`, `[T1508]`, `[trac 1508]`, ...)

    5543The `.url` is mandatory and is used for locating the other Trac.
    56 This can be a relative URL in case that Trac environment is located
    57 on the same server.

    8874 * finally, to link to the start page of a remote trac, simply use its prefix followed by ':', inside an explicit link. Example: `[th: Trac Hacks]` (''since 0.11; note that the ''remote'' Trac has to run 0.11 for this to work'')
    8975
    90 The generic form `intertrac_prefix:module:id` is translated
    91 to the corresponding URL `<remote>/module/id`, shorthand links
    92 are specific to some modules (e.g. !#T234 is processed by the
    93 ticket module) and for the rest (`intertrac_prefix:something`),
    94 we rely on the TracSearch#quickjump facility of the remote Trac.
