if you do:
finger:toddh@idsoftware.com
in mozilla

the .plan is runned through mozTXTToHTMLConv in order to find links it the text.

But even a @ gets linked. Like the line:
11/22/2000 @ 9:45pm CST

has the @ as a link. If there's a @ without any text before or after the @
should be made a link.
Any reason why the text:
"FAQ up on www.quake3arena.com"
isn't made a link?
hmmm... it seems that nsTXTToHTMLConv is used instead of mozTXTToHTMLConv???

Is there a difference?
Yes, nsTXTToHTMLConv is the converter jud wrote (after I wrote moz...) (don't
say it - I agree). finger uses that one. moz... converter works just fine.
