Thinking outside the box a bit... If this book is distributed as a PDF, or in HTML, you could tuck the URLs into hypertext markers, and put text that breaks normally in as the hotspot. That would make links clickable, which they may not be if the URL is just plain text. If it's print-only, you could consider using footnotes for the URLs. That would look normal for a textbook, and since each one starts a new line, would eliminate most linebreak issues. Where needed, you could put in discretionary hyphens, or forced line breaks, and the lack of justification in a footnote would not be likely to be noticed... Once you made such a tweak, it would not need to be changed later, so the maintenance issue goes away too. Just a thought... -- Jeremy H.
