I am trying to get the text of links produced in Wayfinder to have <span> tags around them in order to work with some CSS. Can someone give me an example of how I would do this? Thanks!

&textOfLinks
default: menutitle
values: [ id | menutitle | pagetitle | introtext | menuindex | published | hidemenu | parent | isfolder | description | alias | longtitle | type | template ]
description: The field specified in the textOfLinks parameter will be inserted into the placeholder [+wf.linktext+].
&titleOfLinks
default: pagetitle
values: [ id | menutitle | pagetitle | introtext | menuindex | published | hidemenu | parent | isfolder | description | alias | longtitle | type | template ]
description: The field specified in the titleOfLinks parameter will be inserted into the placeholder [+wf.title+].

The above makes no sense to me.

You need to edit/create custom templates. Take a look at the developers site at the URL bellow and scroll down about half way down to the section that discusses template chunks.

Cool! This worked

In chunk called "menu_rowtpl"

<li[+wf.id+][+wf.classes+]>
	<a href="[+wf.link+]" title="[+wf.title+]" [+wf.attributes+]><span>[+wf.linktext+]</span></a>
	[+wf.wrapper+]
</li>

Snippet call:
