Since you had such excellent suggestions, I'd like your advice about something I've noticed: printed materials often omit the protocol when it is "https://" or "http://". That makes sense to me and I am inclined to change the way the .URL macro in the WWW package works so it does the same (when no link text is specified). For example, .URL https://foo.bar.com/fred/juki/ would be displayed (in PDF, HTML, and nroff) as simply foo.bar.com/fred/juki/ Steve, what do you think of this practice? Everyone: Would anyone object if .URL used this strategy for cleaner typesetting? Note that in the rare cases where someone needed to emphasize the protocol, they could simply repeat the URL a second time as the link text. .URL https://foo.bar.com/fred/juki/ https://foo.bar.com/fred/juki/ would be displayed as https://foo.bar.com/fred/juki/ Thanks! —b9
