If you made this change:

-       if (ISSET(AT_BLANKS) && is_blank_char(text) && column < rightside) {
+       if (ISSET(AT_BLANKS) && (is_blank_char(text) || *text == ']') &&
+                                    column < rightside) {

then that should work.


Personally I was considering this change:

-       if (ISSET(AT_BLANKS) && is_blank_char(text) && column < rightside) {
+       if (ISSET(AT_BLANKS) && column > (COLS / 2) && column < rightside &&
+                                   is_blank_char(text)) {

That is: break at whitespace only after the vertical middle of the screen.
Because it looks silly that the wrapped part is longer that the unwrapped
part.  However, in your case, it would cause the URL to be broken probably
somewhere in the middle of a word.  So yeah, your private patch is the way
to go for you.
