in thread Lack of LWP::SIMPLE information
I popped in and edited it for you ... hope you don't mind.
Normally i would wait for a consideration and a good number
of 'edit' votes ... but in this case i saw no harm.
Regarding your question ... LWP::Simple is indeed simple to use (i searched for 'redirect' in the POD and found no match), so simple that what you want may indeed not be there. In the past, i used LWP and Co. for serious web bots ... these days i just WWW::Mechanize (check out WWW::Mechanize::Shell as well). They make writting web bots fun again. ;)
