It's my impression that the number of Perl 6 related postings slowly increases, and I'd like to have an easy way to link to Perl 6 related pages, especially to the Synposis.

I'd suggest making [S\d\d] point to the corresponding Synopsis at http://perlcabal.org/syn/ (which are the official specs, frequently sync, and cross linked with the test suite).

Additionally the synopsis have anchors for both line numbers and headings, on #perl6 it's a custom to write S06:249 when pointing to http://perlcabal.org/syn/S06.html#line_249, we should adapt this as well.

The links to the headings are usually written as S06/"Properties and traits", pointing to http://perlcabal.org/syn/S06.html#Properties_and_traits - I think here we can omit the the qutoes because the square brackets already delimit the link. (The origin of the this syntax are the smart links in the test suite).

It would be helpfull to have these links, they should not be too hard to implement. The actual syntax is not that important, as long as it's easy to remeber.
