[hobbit] URLplus

[Gary Baluha]

I have an updated version of URLPLus which supports single-form submissions.
I haven't gotten around to being able to submit directly to The Shire, so
I'm attaching it here.

I've also updated this to do multi-page checking (i.e. full "end-to-end"
transaction monitoring), but consider that feature mostly experimental at
this time.
