Hi Christine,

You've raised a good point about the continuation sign with
compinline Styled web and e-mail addresses, and so I've
brought this to the attention of those at Duxbury who handle
to rule side of things.

Meantime, if you apply compinline, and then compdisplay.
embracing the former, you will get the 1,2,3,4,6
continuation sign.

Good Morning all,

I am looking for a little help please.

I am formatting a large document which contains over 200
World Wide Web addresses.

Normally I would use the Compinline  codes to indicate the
address in computer braile and then go back and put any
necessary continuation signs in manually.  .  However, does
DBT have a set of codes or style which inserts the
continuation sign of dots 456-12346 automatically at the
right hand end of the first line of the address (when an
address overflows to the second line) or must I enter it
automatically.  And, folowing from this, if I can have this
sign entered automatically, does it break the text at a
sensible place eg before a fullstop or slash etc, or does it
just put the sign in the last two cells of the line
depending on the line parameter settings as they currently
are.

George, if there is not a code to insert the continuation
sign, is there any chance of getting such in the next
release please?

I hope all this makes sense.   

Cheers

Christine
