FYI, shorter lists.gnu.org URLs, finally

[Jim Meyering]

Now, instead of
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2017-10/threads.html
you can write the shorter
http://lists.gnu.org/r/bug-coreutils/2017-10/threads.html

This applies to all mailing lists hosted on lists.gnu.org.

Sometimes it matters, especially when a URL is longer than the maximum
line length in some context.

That's nice. "r" is for "Arrrrrchive"?

Sounds plausible :-)
