Well, I suppose hiding links under proto names should not lengthen lines too much ;) Then, left part may be shortened to just hostname. someting like (html form) ftp3.ie.freebsd.org <a href="ftp://ftp3.ie.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/">ftp</a>; / <a href="http://ftp3.ie.freebsd.org/">http</a>; / <a href="rsync://ftp3.ie.freebsd.org/">rsync</a> should be both compact and logical enough. Not ready to provide a patch yet, sorry :) Sincerely, D.Marck [DM5020, MCK-RIPE, DM3-RIPN] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ *** Dmitry Morozovsky --- D.Marck --- Wild Woozle --- marck@rinet.ru *** ------------------------------------------------------------------------
