But I dont want to 'redefine', I just need to change it's apearance... For
DocBook, it would means changing the style-sheet, not the dtd...

Hum, this is what comes under my mouse when clicking the obvious menue.
If it's not what I should use, then it's surprising the interface is made
that way.

<hyperlink|A|B> is probably now:
- Displaying A with a link to B when exporting to HTML
- Using \htmladdnormallink{A}{B} for latex export
- Displaying A and forgeting about B on ps export.

I belive this latest behavior should have other setting, and probably the
current one shouldnt even be the default (as a big lost of information on
print).


If there is no other way than to redefine my own command for this, could
you anyway point me to the right documentation to do that ? (I dont have a
clue about that kind of customisation in texmacs). Thanks.

OK, thanks. This is clearer to me now.

You'r probably right on that point.
By the way long text line are not that hard to edit if the editor can
handle soft wrapping.
