Any ideas? What's the command you're issuing? I'm using OpenJade 1.3 and Jadetex 2.20 (but since 2.13, IIRC, I used to get these correctly) and get bop footnotes. > Also, line breaking with the TeX backend is rather awful.

I've talked to Sebastian and he explained me that it's very difficult to know what is a URL and what's not to use such instructions. Since them, I've been thinking about writing some script that looks after some common stuff and use the url package (it's a (La)TeX package). This 'NEVER' is impossible if you want to get a good output. You might reduce them a lot, thought... Even writing directly in LaTeX you'll get these. Look at 'filename.log' for "overfull" messages.
