WordPerfect has a "hyphenation soft return" which allows a conditional
line
break in a word without a hyphen. This is useful, for example, when you
have
a long URL in a sentence, and you don't want the entire URL moved to a new
line leaving a lot of white space on the previous line. In WordPerfect,
you
can insert "hyphenation soft returns" after the slashes, so the program
will
know to break the URL there if necessary, but without inserting a hyphen
at
the break. Does Word have the equivalent? If not, it should.
