The present invention provides a dynamic hyperlinking architecture that permits a user to enable/disable hyperlink domains that are automatically applied to every bit of textual data present in the system or displayed to the user. The present invention includes synchronous and asynchronous, inter-thread function calls, including support for function overrides in a threaded scope dependent manner. The present invention also supports broadcast (multiple call) call configurations and run-time examination of function registries. In the preferred embodiment, the system comprises a threaded environment, threaded type dependant symbolic functions and a hyperlinking system uses both the threaded environment and symbolic functions to dynamically create links to data and functions that are displayed and/or executed responsive to user selection of a link.
