While I understand what a link and hyperlink are, there is a third kind of link which for want of a better name I call a sublink, and appears as a shorter version often also in blue with underline, usu a common word or phrase and which clicked upon has exactly the same effect as if it were the entire link

Also am I not correct in assuming that the purpose of a sublink is not to save space on the forum's hard drive but to prevent the basic kind of link from overrunning a line, which isn't permitted on some forums, owing to inferior programming techniques. Actually is not the original link contained within the sublink so that the two together actually occupy more code than the original link alone

I haven't sublinked the following because I understand WS' algorithm permits multiline links
