[Rd] Linking to documentation from a vignette using markdown?

Hello:


       What's the preferred way to link to package documentation from a 
vignette using markdown?


       My current draft includes 
"[cumsum](https://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-devel/library/base/html/cumsum.html)" 
to link to the help page for cusum{base} and 
"[KFAS](https://rweb.crmda.ku.edu/cran/web/packages/KFAS/KFAS.pdf)" to 
link to the pdf documentation for the KFAS package.  This works, but it 
feels like an ugly hack, and I wonder if there might be some more 
elegant way of doing this (documented in a fine manual I have yet to find)?


       Thanks,
       Spencer
