[PostCSS Pseudo Class Any Link] lets you `:any-link` pseudo-class in CSS,
following the [Selectors] specification.

```pcss
nav :any-link > span {
	background-color: yellow;
}

/* becomes */

nav :link > span, nav :visited > span {
	background-color: yellow;
}
nav :any-link > span {
	background-color: yellow;
}
```

## Usage

Add [PostCSS Pseudo Class Any Link] to your project:

```bash
npm install postcss postcss-pseudo-class-any-link --save-dev
```

Use it as a [PostCSS] plugin:

```js
const postcss = require('postcss');
const postcssPseudoClassAnyLink = require('postcss-pseudo-class-any-link');

postcss([
	postcssPseudoClassAnyLink(/* pluginOptions */)
]).process(YOUR_CSS /*, processOptions */);
```

[PostCSS Pseudo Class Any Link] runs in all Node environments, with special
instructions for:

- [Node](INSTALL.md#node)
- [PostCSS CLI](INSTALL.md#postcss-cli)
- [PostCSS Load Config](INSTALL.md#postcss-load-config)
- [Webpack](INSTALL.md#webpack)
- [Next.js](INSTALL.md#nextjs)
- [Gulp](INSTALL.md#gulp)
- [Grunt](INSTALL.md#grunt)

## Options

### preserve

The `preserve` option determines whether the original notation
is preserved. By default, it is preserved.

```js
postcssPseudoClassAnyLink({ preserve: false })
```

```pcss
nav :any-link > span {
	background-color: yellow;
}

/* becomes */

nav :link > span, nav :visited > span {
	background-color: yellow;
}
```

### subFeatures

#### areaHrefNeedsFixing

The `subFeatures.areaHrefNeedsFixing` option determines if `<area href>` elements should match `:any-link` pseudo-class.<br>
In IE and Edge these do not match `:link` or `:visited`.

_This increased CSS bundle size and is disabled by default._

```js
postcssPseudoClassAnyLink({
	subFeatures: {
		areaHrefNeedsFixing: true
	}
})
```

```pcss
nav :any-link > span {
	background-color: yellow;
}

/* becomes */

nav :link > span, nav :visited > span, nav area[href] > span {
	background-color: yellow;
}
nav :any-link > span {
	background-color: yellow;
}
```
