How do you format text within a denoted link in reStructuredText?

Specifically, I wish to generate the following HTML from my rst:

<a href="http://docs.python.org/library/optparse.html"><tt>optparse.OptionParser</tt> documentation documentation</a>

The result should look like this:

optparse.OptionParser documentation

where the "optparse.OptionParser" portion is in fixed-width font.

I tried

```optparse.OptionParser`` <http://docs.python.org/library/optparse.html>`_

however, this gave

<tt class="docutils literal">`optparse.OptionParser</tt> documentation &lt;<a class="reference external" href="http://docs.python.org/library/optparse.html">http://docs.python.org/library/optparse.html</a>&gt;`_

which looks like this

``optparse.OptionParser documentation <http://docs.python.org/library/optparse.html>\_
