Hello,
I have many really bad breaking points in URLs (both produced with bib
module and with
\useURL[bla][http://www.very-very-very-very-very-long-bla.com]\from[bla],
or \hyphenatedurl, doesn't matter). Is there any way to influence
breaking points in those URLs manually? For normal words there exists
\hyphenate{...}, but how to handle urls?
(I have the interction turned off if that matters.)
I faintly remember some discussion about preparing hyphenation
patterns for URLs (like: never try to break http:// or after ~, try to
put slash at the end of first part). Would that solve the issue? I
sometimes try to replace space and _ in wikipedia URLs and results are
totally random, but in general all of them breaking really bad -
leaving several letters too much in each line.
Thanks a lot,
Mojca

Yes, this is really a need as quoting URLs gets more and more used. A manual force (like \- for nor normal words) would be helpful too.

You could change the hyphenation points with: - \sethyphenatedurlnormal - \sethyphenatedurlbefore - \sethyphenatedurlafter Wolfgang ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : https://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________ ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
