{-| Scans page of Markdown looking for http links. When it finds them, it submits them to webcitation.org / https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/WebCite (It will also submit them to Alexa (the source for the Internet Archive), but Alexa says that its bots take weeks to visit and may not ever.) This module employs the archiver daemon as a library; `cabal install archiver` will install it. Limitations: * Only parses Markdown, not ReST or any other format; this is because 'readMarkdown' is hardwired into it. * No rate limitation or choking; will fire off all requests as fast as possible. If pages have more than 20 external links or so, this may result in your IP being temporarily banned by WebCite. To avoid this, you can use WebArchiverBot.hs instead, which will parse & dump URLs into a file processed by the archiver daemon (which *is* rate-limited).
