What do you do about long URLs in footnotes?
.FS
http://db.lcs.mit.edu/projects/cstore/vldb.pdf
.FE
engenders a complaint in a 2C document:
dbformat.ms:983: warning [p 11, 3.6i, div `fn@div', 0.0i]: can't break
line
(I suppose I should be able to read that, but I haven't taken the time
to discover what fn@div might mean!)
man 7 groff tells me
\: Inserts a zero-width break point (similar to \%
but without a soft hyphen character).
but nothing I do with it seems to matter, e.g.
.FS
http://db.lcs.mit.edu/projects/\:cstore/vldb.pdf
.FE
changes the warning, but not the appearance.
What am I missing?
