Description

I am using Ford `page_dir` feature to add some documentation in a project. I would like to know if it is possible to add links to a section of the same page.

I tried using the information I found [here](https://stackoverflow.com/a/16426829/4433869), links are added but they do not work.

I attach example files to this report: [ford_links.tar.gz](https://github.com/Fortran-FOSS-Programmers/ford/files/7163999/ford_links.tar.gz)

Research direction

Start by unpacking the attached ford_links.tar.gz example and tracing Ford's page_dir documentation path. Check how same-page links are generated and verify that the resulting anchors navigate correctly in the generated documentation.
