Handout link naming?

1423561761

Edited 1423562111
is there a way to rename the link to a handout? how are the handout links named at creation? i just got a years worth of Mentor after my Co-DM turned me on to powercards. <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1463736/script-p" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/1463736/script-p</a>... but i have run into a problem, the creator uses __ in the link formating to indicate underline, this is very intuative and aided me in swiftly locating the problem of why my macro failed me. I recreated the 5e players handbook using archived (hidden off the main list, but set to be viewable by everyone) handouts into a Handout index. and i plan to add a lot of the content in the DMG and all the monsters form the MM as well. ( i look forward to my 598 archived handouts climbing to over 900) with as many handouts as i have some of htem ended up with __ in their links, this interfeers with the !powercard link format since __ changes format to underlined. the same way // in http://Link breaks it an makes it italic. i would like to know how the handout links are made by roll20, and if it is possible to rename the links with __ in them, since my current workaround is to just recreate the handout ( sometimes creating a new handout with a link including __ ).
Say you are working on handout Z, trying to make a link to handout Y (but you want to name it X). Edit handout Z and correctly link the handout [Y], save and exit the handout. Edit handout Z again and, with a single-click to the link ( Y ) you just made, rename it as you want (to X or whatever). Save again and you're done.
nono, that method jsut renames the label of the link, not actually changing the address of the link... im trying to input the link's http address into a macro and sometimes the __ in the adress screws with the macro. SO im trying to figure out how to change the http adress
