Hi all,
a) I've reported this before; I ca1n't seem to wrap long URLs across lines
in XeTeX
$ pdfinfo x.pdf

If I do this in LuaTeX it seems to work fine.
\useURL[doilink][http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/32.689404][][\hyphenatedurl{
http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/32.689404}]
\from[doilink]
But with XeTeX it insists on overflowing into the margins or into another
column. Does anyone have a workaround?

In this latest version I don't even need the \hyphenatedurl macro :).
b) And please, guys, will you just include a macro that will take a URL as
a parameter and typeset it. Having to do
\useURL[doilink][http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/32.689404][][\hyphenatedurl{
http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/32.689404}]
\from[doilink]
is just unnecessary. I'm thinking \typeurl[<url>], that's it.
c) Is there something wrong with using \footnote{<text>} whilst in a
column?
I can send the full example off-list. Just ping me.
Thank you,
—Mohamed
