Hi Giovanni, Basile, Frank,

Yes, the back-numbering mechanism assumes that you use the smart-ref
convention type:number.  Alternatively, if your reference is preceded
by the appropriate "type", then it will work too.  For example,
when typing 'see section <ref|3>' and hitting enter after the 3,
TeXmacs will know that you are referring to section 3 and not to theorem 3.

Best wishes, --Joris
