------- Additional comments from [email protected] Thu Jan 29 17:35:01 +0000 2009 ------- I fully endorse udippel's comments. Yes, this is (mostly) about reference lists in academic papers, and no, it is not about clickable hyperlinks (for which most writers probably have no use in word-processed documents anyway) but about how to represent URLs (or, to be technical about it, URIs) in print so as to comply with print style guidelines. Any URI, ie any string that starts with http://, ftp:// etc., should be exempt from the usual word division rules, and the strings should break after slashes and before punctuation, and _only_ after slashes and before punctuation, and they should not have a hyphen where they wrap. Current behaviour (as verified in OOo 3.0.0/Linux) is for URIs to be subjected to regular word division rules, which introduce hyphens where hyphens are less than useful because they introduce an ambiguity as to whether or not they're part of the URI. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
