Is this the client that makes it a link? Or does it mandate http:// for it to be a link?

I'm trying to create a dictionary script that uses dict.org to retrieve the link of the queried word and post the link to the channel. Now, I've gotten the script to do exactly what I want, works fine. However, one thing bothers me.

When a query is made, it returns the entire URL to the channel. I prefer to send a link (in the format of "word defined" where the quoted text is a link).

Example:
A user does

Code: 

.define egg
This outputs

Code: 

egg defined: http://www.dict.org/bin/Dict?Form=Dict2&Database=*&Query=egg
What I prefer is

Code: 

egg defined
where "egg defined" appears in the channel as a clickable link.

Is this possible?

Many thanks.
