For use of 'texlinks' with 'blog.sty', %% the latter provides definitions of `\httpref' and `\httpsref' %% suitable for \acro{HTML}, where a choice of opening a new %% tab or window---or not---is relevant. %% %% For use with 'hyperref' (or ...?), 'texlinks' may %% provide definitions of `\httpref' and `\httpsref' %% based on `\href'. The decision to do so or not may happen at %% `\begin{document}'. 'blog.sty' generates \acro{HTML} without %% using the `{document}' environment, so we might assume %% that when `\begin{document}' is found, we are running %% 'hyperref', or just \emph{something} that provides a %% useful `\href'. We might then execute a definition of %% `\httpref' in terms of `\href'. Well, not sure ... %% %% Moreover, a \acro{PDF} file with links may be \emph{printed}, %% and klicking the links on the paper may fail. %% \acro{URL}s in main text, on the other hand, sometimes are %% troublesome. I consider it a good idea to present %% links with their \acro{URL} as the displayed text in \emph{footnotes} %% (or endnotes). It may even be useful with \acro{HTML} to present %% the \acro{URL}s displayed in some %% 2011/01/27: %% ``appendix."---This idea has been resumed in v0.2 only, %% |\urlfoot|. %% % %% % I tend to introduce something for this ... and there might be a %% % package option forcing `\httpref' to use this style. %% % Well, better \emph{not today} ...
