DESCRIPTION
A Perl interface to the web site metamark.net. Metamark simply maintains a database of long URLs, each of
which has a unique identifier.
Functions
makeashorterlink
The function "makeashorterlink" will call the Metamark web site passing it your long URL and will return
the shorter Metamark version.
makealongerlink
The function "makealongerlink" does the reverse. "makealongerlink" will accept as an argument either the
full Metamark URL or just the Metamark identifier.
If anything goes wrong, then either function will return "undef".
