the manual saids:
 ----------
|On text-only terminals, Emacs displays a `\' character at the right margin
|of a screen line if it is not the last in its text line.  This `\'
|character says that the following screen line is not really a distinct
|line in the text, just a "continuation" of a line too long to fit the
|screen.  Continuation is also called "line wrapping".
 ----------

Is there any way to hide the indicator "\" ?

The reason I want to do this is that, without "\", some terminal is
able to pick up long http address.

thanks

   No (AFAIK).

you can try:

(set-display-table-slot standard-display-table 1 ?\s)

which causes the indicator to be a space.  this may
or may not be sufficient for OP's purposes.
