Hi, Org people.
I'm not familiar with referencing in documents, so I'm not sure. The
section "11.2 Images and Tables" in the manual says:
You can use the following lines somewhere before the table to assign a
caption and a label for cross references, and in the text you can refer
to the object with `\ref{tab:basic-data}':
#+CAPTION: This is the caption for the next table (or link)
#+LABEL: tbl:basic-data
| ... | ...|
\ref says "tab:", while #+LABEL says "tbl:". Is that a typo?
I presume, without knowing, that these prefixes are conventional, and
they do not have a preset meaning. I could have used "zzz:" if I felt
like it?
