Re: Broken lines and URLs

Jon,

the long URL will not fit on one line - that is why it breaks.

What they might better do is use something like tinyurl.com to present it in
a form that will fit on one line.

In the mean while, because this is such a common issue on many mailing lists
these days, we could probably all learn to copy-paste the first line, then
the second. While inconvenient, requiring some 10 seconds additional effort,
it is 100% reliable with practice.

Best regards, Andrew
