Quote - (I guess you can't embed links with the [url] command. Fixed them to be naked...)

You should be able to select the text you want to make a link, then click the "chain" icon, to the left of the font selector, in the text editor pane's toolbar. You can then make your link target a new browser tab / window then too (there's a pop up link editor dialog after cliking the chain icon)

Most modern browsers seem to be able to recognise a selected link... and give you a right-click option to navigate to it... anyway though.

Thanks for the tips / links regarding hair :)
