Really? This has my quite surprised, as the second one is actually the
proposed standard according to RFC 1738. It is supposed give the UAs a
better chance of distinguishing between URLs and other data structures
in plain text. It is also supposed to work for broken lines, so this
URL should be clickable: <URL:http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/htbin/rfc/
rfc1738.html>. Dunno if it works, though.
