maybe possible, what i do (as a workaround) type:

[ url=www.yadayada.com ] mask [ /url ]

(without the spaces...)

Thats already a default feature in vb, click the https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2009/12/3.gif and type in the box, it will post your link and have the text highlighted to change the text to what you want.
