Well, that didn't work.  How the heck do you insert a link to a prior post?  Am I supposed to use the hyperlink button or the FTP link button?  Am I supposed to place the curser between the brackets?  Am I supposed to go to the post in question and copy & paste the URL into the new post?  I'm baffled.

For inserting a link....I just copy and paste it in.  There are no other buttons you need to push (no medai, no photo, no nuttin).

I edited your first post to include a link....you can open it and see that there is no other button or icon used - just pasted the copied url.

I'm lovin that.  Thanks Dave.  I could swear I've tried that approach before but it was a flop.

I'm lovin that too.  Thanks Versy.

So, let's say I've typed a bunch of baloney in a post and now I want to go snatch a prior post and paste in the hyperlink.  How do I navigate out of the post I'm currently working on and copy the URL from the post I want to reference?  I tried that and I lost the text I was working on.  How do I do it without losing my draft?

Yep. "Ctrl" + "N" will open a new browser window where you can go find the post you want and copy the link, then go back to the original window where you were typing your baloney....What Dave said.

Now for some advanced moves:

Windows + L      Lock your Windows device
Alt + Tab              Switch to previous window
CTRL + X          Cut      
CTRL + C          Copy      
CTRL + V          Paste      
CTRL + Z          Undo      
CTRL + A          Select All      
CTRL + S          Save file/document
F5                    Refresh contents of window      
Tab key            Move forward through options      
SHIFT + Tab     Move backward through options      
CTRL + F             Opens “Find” in console dialog
