urlmon

Version: 2.1
Entered-date: 1997-09-04
Description: urlmon makes a connection to a web site and records the last_modified time for that url. Upon subsequent calls, it will check the url again, this time comparing the information to the previously recorded times. Since the last_modified data is not required to be given by the http (its optional), urlmon will then take an M5 checksum. This is actually more accurate, as time stamps can be modified. It's real utilitity is evident when running it periodically in batch mode, so as to keep tabs on many different web pages. It can now do URL monitoring in parallel
