Christine, I'm no expert so I hope somebody else will answer you. But if I
remember correctly, the continuation sign is inserted wherever the end of
the line occurs--not necessarily at a logical place, like before .com or
something.
Also, I used to insert the continuation code using certain codes when I used
DOS but at the time many experts told me not to worry overmuch about the
continuation sign so I didn't use it much after that. But it looks much
nicer to have the continuation sign there. And I'm not sure what the comp
display under the F8 key does 'cause I usually use comp line.
Anyway, good luck!!

Subject: [duxuser] Transcribing Web Addresses
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
