URL again...

URL again...

[Joop Susan]

Hello,

Is there a way to prevent '\url' from stripping trailing '/'s in the printed 
document? The '/' in the URL passed to the webbrowser is still there (as it 
should be).

I use the following code:

-----------------
% output=PDF

\setupurl
    [style=\ss]

\setupbodyfont[ss,10pt]

\setupwhitespace[medium]

\def\utest#1%
    {{\let~\tildeletter\useURL[tmp][#1]%
      \strut\useexternalfigure[web][web][factor=10]%
      \inframed[offset=none,frame=off]{\externalfigure[web]}\kern0.7mm%
      \goto{\url[tmp]}[URL(tmp)]}}

\setupcolors[state=start]

\setupinteraction[state=start,color=darkred,contrastcolor=red]

\starttext

\utest{http://www.xs4all.nl/~vnf/index.html}
We must be safe for tildes.

\utest{http://www.xs4all.nl/~vnf/}
This one should have a trailing '/'. Why hasn't it?

\utest{http://www.xs4all.nl/~vnf/index_fi.html}
We must be safe for underscores.

\utest{http://localhost/~jgsusan/main.pl?type=5&lang=nl&name=abc\%20def&use=9}
We must be safe for some more funnies...

\stoptext

Well, that's a bug! In supp-lan.tex, search for \handletokens and add
"\savedurl" as in the following code snippet. Then regenerate the format. I
forgot to flush saved characters, and / can be one. 

   \let\savedurl\empty
   \handletokens#1\with\scanurl\savedurl
   \egroup}

URL again...

[Joop Susan]

Hello,

For some time I have used the following macro:

\setupurl [style=\ss]

\def\VNFurl#1% {{\let~\tildeletter\useURL[tmp][#1]\strut\useexternalfigure[
web][web][factor=10]\inframed[offset=none,frame=off]{\externalfigure[web]}\
kern0.7mm\goto{\url[tmp]}[URL(tmp)]}}

This was Hans' suggestion (14 Jun 2000 on this list). It has worked well 
up to now, living in a standard environment file.

Something has changed in the last context versions that causes the printed 
url's to be in boldtype. This macro was written this was because passing a 
url that contained '~'s caused problems.

I'd like to get rid of the bold type. What would be the preferred way with 
new ConTeXt versions (2001.8.6).

Thanks,

Joop

goto's honor interaction settings, so \setupinteraction[style=] should do, 
or put that in the macro VNFurl, alternatively use a \gotobox, (or 
\gotobox{\strut...}[...]) but then you loose some fine points
