The README link:

Knuth & Plass line-breaking Revisited

... is broken.

Is the article you're looking for among these links? Googling for Knuth Plass revisited, I see some abstracts, but nothing outside of a paywall.

I'm not looking for anything - your README.md has a link to an article; and that link is broken...

I don't support bramstein/typeset -- Bram Stein still does. I support Text::KnuthPlass (a Perl implementation).

The link https://defoe.sourceforge.net/folio/knuth-plass.html doesn't work? I just clicked on it in the README.md on GitHub and it seemed to come up OK. It's also in my list of sources (given above) and works OK there, too. Any chance you have a filter blocking access to SourceForge?

This link: http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/113445055/abstract

is broken. And that's the first link on your README.md ; I'm sorry if I wasn't clear enough...

The broken one is

* [Breaking paragraphs into lines, Donald E. Knuth, Michael F. Plass](http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/113445055/abstract)

In this archive [1], http://web.archive.org/web/20180605061043/https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1002/spe.4380111102, it reads

Thus I think the living url https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/spe.4380111102 is a good substitution. It provides almost the same info compared to an older but successful archive http://web.archive.org/web/20160312202904/http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/spe.4380111102/abstract.

I see it is repeated as the second entry in the References section. All I can suggest is that you submit a PR that cleans up the links in the README.md file, and if it's very little work for Bram to add it, he might do so. Be forewarned that he's not very active on this repository.
