--------------------------------------
Whimsy currently uses Bootstrap 3.x, which includes Glyphicons:

Example usage:

> Add suitable icon to external links

> Project: Whimsy
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Sebb
> Priority: Major
>
> Further to WHIMSY-171, it might be useful to identify external links in the
> Whimsy GUI.
> I assume this should be just a matter of adding the appropriate class to the
> link, however there does not seem to be an external link class nor a suitable
> icon in bootstrap.
> An alternative would be to add explanatory text to the links.
> External link icons are not standardised and may be confused with 'opens in
> new window' so that might work better?
