    select the text you want to add a link to then click the icon that looks like a globe and a paperclip... then that's where you put the address.

    ...or Ctrl-K. Same as in Office.

    Hmm, Ctrl-K doesn't work for me. (Nor does Ctrl-L, the other short-cut I've seen.) Is this windows-specific? (I'm usually on ubuntu.)

    Belated Thanks, ShiftPlusOne! I've been using this feature a lot (Although it looks more like a Globe with Sunglasses, looking down, to me. I don't see the paperclip.).

    BTW, your Username is kinda interesting. When you hold the shift key down, you automatically get the Plus sign. So when people abbreviate your username to Shift+1, do they not miss a subtle joke?

    You'd be Shift=1! And a mere =1 would just be shiftless!

    Or am I just not minding my own derned business here?

    Ah, it's not a paperclip. What was I thinking? It's a chain link.

    Lol, I think you're over thinking my username. It's just '!' expanded out.
