Without further ado, the following was found:

Issue:    The URL is invalid

"For maximum interoperability, programs and users should also limit the "
"characters that they use for their own pathnames to characters in the POSIX "
"E<.UR https://pubs.opengroup.org/\\:onlinepubs/\\:9799919799/\\:basedefs/"
"\\:V1_chap03.html#tag_03_265> Portable Filename Character Set E<.UE .>"

Hi Helge,

That URI has '\\:' in it, which is correct in roff(7) (and in man(7))
source code.  That is removed by troff(1) when formatting the page.
If you read the formatted page that's not there.

Yes, then no URL is there :))

Hmmm, that depends on your terminal.  If there's no URL or hyperlink,
this might be an issue in either the terminal or groff(1).

I use the Linux console.

I can confirm.  Branden, is this a bug?  I think the Linux console
should print the URI as in the old days.


Cheers,
Alex
