Peter,

Thanks for putting this out there.

An interesting thought, but the output is mangled by the addition of ':' to
the end of links. Makes all links 404 if you attempt to right click on them
in a terminal and open them.

Example...

I: debian/copyright:62: URL:
http://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/: INFORMATION
(Certainty:possible)

The ':' is part of the link in the terminals I have tried. A solution here
would be to replace ': ' with ' - '.

I would consider using the application if some work was to be done on it.

Regards

Phil
