Subject: Option to display external links without brackets
The present UseMod formatter faithfully reproduces the markup that UseModWiki does for external links: [http://my.site.com My special website] is rendered as [My special website] (with hyperlink) Any way of removing those silly square brackets? Everyone (at least everyone worth knowing :) knows what a link looks like. The brackets do not add anything. We should make this optional, as there are probably UseModNerds out there who will insist on keeping the brackets.
I am unlikely to find time to do this. However I will accept a patch.
