Hi,

I’ve wrote my first ruby script. It’s a nagios plugin who get a full  
webpage.

Main features:  
\* Ruby small script, easy to understand and hack (I hope) …  
\* http/https  
\* Use the powerful and simple hpricot lib to parse html  
\* Multi-thread  
\* Keyword check  
\* Follow redirections

I would like to have opinions and advices about this code and enhance it  
if needeed.
