Unless you can point to the specification? For some reason the GNKSA appears to not even mention URL delimiters. RFC 1738 was pretty clear: "[...] is recommended that angle brackets ("<" and ">"), along with the prefix "URL:", be used to delimit the boundaries of the URL." The more current RFC 3986 for some reason bothered to somewhat unspecify this: "[...] it is important to be able to delimit the URI from the rest of the text, and in particular from punctuation marks that might be mistaken for part of the URI. In practice, URIs are delimited in a variety of ways, but usually within double-quotes "http://example.com/", angle brackets <http://example.com/>, or just by using whitespace: [...]" Regardless, AFAIK angle brackets are the most commonly recognised by news (and mail) clients. -- Sander Tekelenburg, <http://www.euronet.nl/~tekelenb/> Mac user: "Macs only have 40 viruses, tops!"
