Hi all:

Just a very very small observation: I tend to add fanfic URLs to Calibre in groups, and noticed a while back that when I pasted a URL into the Download from URL box, it used to add a hard return to the end of the URL, ready to paste in the next address. It doesn't do that anymore. and I sometimes forget to add the return, resulting in failed 'gets' due to malformed URLs.

There was a period of time when I would try to paste URLs copied from Outlook and it would paste the formatted text in instead of the URL, but that stopped. Could have been a computer glitch for all I know.

Is there any way the hard return could be added back in? Was there a coding reason it was removed?

Thanks for listening to my little whine lol I haven't tried any of the FFN fixes, since I'm years behind on my computer understanding, more than Darth1 there.
