Look here: http://alembic.com/cgi-bin/alembic-club/discus.cgi?pg=formatting#other if you type: \ newurl {http:/ /alembic. com/cgi-bin/alembic-club/discus.cgi?pg=formatting#other,click here} without the spaces it appears like: click here Since this has nothing to do with Alembic basses and guitars I started a new thread in miscellaneous: please click here -LOL- You get the idea?
