Long URL's have a hard newline inserted, making them not copy-pastable or clickable

Write a long URL into a chat (longer than terminal width) to reproduce.

The link clicking works on the notification in gnome-shell though. Sometimes (I don't know the criteria for this to happen) it works on enlightenment's terminal emulator - terminology. I never got it to work on gnome-terminal. As a workaround, you can resize the terminal window, which should make the link fit in a single line and work correctly if clicked.

I'm not sure it's possible to fix this in hangups due to the way the UI works. One alternative is adding mouse support (#32) so clicking the link invokes a browser.

I'll try terminology and see if that works.
