NAME

http_status - check the HTTP status of a URL

SYNOPSIS

        % http_status URL [URL ...]

DESCRIPTION

http_status gets the HTTP status of a URL as returned by the server. It actually works with more than HTTP links since it uses the "LWP" Perl module which treats all URLs the same. This works too:

        % perl script/http_status file:///Users/brian/.login

If you have "Term::ANSIColor", it will color the output. If you have "HTML::SimpleLinkExtor", it will parse the HTML of the resource and then check all of those links.

If, for some reason, I disappear from the world, one of the other members of the project can shepherd this module appropriately.
