Okay. I understand your problem. We could probably only catch those by starting to wrap all URLs in <> at the document source level manually.

Then I'll come back later on this. ;-) Cheers, Robert -- +++ BTTR Software +++ Home page: https://www.bttr-software.de/ DOS ain't dead: https://www.bttr-software.de/forum/ _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
