[WebPub] link checker tool for Mac?

[Remlee Green]

Thanks, Jay!  I¹ve tried that a few times for quick link searches, and
it¹s great for speedy searching, but we really need a downloadable report,
so we can run through & update links really efficiently (our site is
pretty huge).  And we¹ve found that Google doesn¹t always find everything.
