LinkController 0.37

LinkController is a group of programs designed to take away much of the work of maintaining the links in a web site. Instead of the user running the program checking whether links are broken, LinkController does this automatically. When it finds a broken link it checks it several times across several days before reporting it broken. This means that if a link is repaired in the meantime (a common case), the user will never be bothered.
All the functionalities are in place for testing links and repairing problem identified. The software is under development so stability is totally not guaranteed, but then with the exception of the fix-link program, there shouldnt be much risk of data loss so dont worry and make sure you backup your web pages just like normal.
Main features:
- repeatedly checks a link before declaring it broken
- rapid repair of links based on database
- easy but configurable reporting
- access to pages requiring authentication (new/experimental)
- CGI pages for reporting and repair
- scalability - thousands of links across thousands of pages possible
- low network impact: slow checking and well spread
- low resource utilisation: mostly uses HEAD requests
- configurability
- designed for multi-user use
Enhancements:
- Bugfix for checking of incorrect links which get into the database somehow.
