so what? it doesn't matter. this is 2015, not 1995.


The relevance of that is ... ?

URL is now (hopefully) unwrapped.

wrapping a url makes no difference whatsoever.


It shouldn't but, on too many news readers, it does.


not many, but regardless, they're broken.


Broken they may be, and broken they a true.

whitespace and line breaks are automatically stripped, either by the
newsreader or the browser (or both).


They should but, on too many news readers, they don't.


again, it's not that many and not just newsreaders either.


New readers are all we are concerned about at the moment.

browsers don't care, so a copy/paste of the multiple lines, wrapped or
not, works just fine.

replace what you're using with software that isn't broken and/or
complain to the authors to fix the bugs. do not require other people to
adapt to your crappy software.


You are uneccesarily abusive. Agent has problems with quoted ... .
Some news readers wrap and hyphenate original URLs. I don't like it
but I put up with it. I also try to _help_ other people with the
problem by posting unwrapped URLs where previously they have been
wrapped.

in 1995 it would not be surprising to see software fail to properly
handle wrapped urls since at that time, urls were new and computers
were fairly limited.

in 2015, there is no excuse for software to not properly handle urls
since urls are everywhere and computers are *far* more capable. in
fact, there's nothing extra to do, since the capability to parse them
is built into the operating system so software only needs to enable
that and it's done.

replace it with non-broken software. why would anyone intentionally use
broken software?

nope. it's both.

it's really the browsers that matter since without a browser, a url is
of little use, regardless if it's wrapped or not.

browsers don't care, so a copy/paste of the multiple lines, wrapped or
not, works just fine.

replace what you're using with software that isn't broken and/or
complain to the authors to fix the bugs. do not require other people to

then it's broken.

Some news readers wrap and hyphenate original URLs. I don't like it
but I put up with it.


some wrap but that does't matter. however, i've never seen one add
hyphens, which is *very* broken. what moron would write software that
does that???

I also try to _help_ other people with the
problem by posting unwrapped URLs where previously they have been
wrapped.


i try to help people by making them aware that their software is broken
and that by replacing it with non-broken software, their problems *go*
*away*.

For the same reason that someone would type everything in lower case:
because they can't be arsed to change.


not even remotely the same and totally irrelevant to the topic.
