[texhax] Help on cross-references

[Christian H. Aastrup]

Greetings most exhalted LaTeX-sages

Having read an old math book, I was interested in knowing whether LaTeX might make cross-references like it did.

Surely LaTeX can do just about anything if you ask it the right way.

Here's what it looked like
___________________________

Chapter 1

text text text text 
text text text text 

Section 1

An equation

2+2 < 5                (1)

A reference to the equation 
now looks like: (1)

Section 2

text text text text 
text text text text 

A ref to the equation 
is now (1.1)

Chapter 2

text text text text 
text text text text 

A ref to the equation 
is now (1.1.1)

Is there any way to make LaTeX make cross-references like that? A package? Or some arcane things?


Kind regards,
