#
# A wrapper around Nagios plugins that provides a URL link in the output
#
#
# Pay close attention to quoting to ensure that the shell passes the
# expected data to the plugin. For example, in:
#
#    urlize http://example.com/ check_http -H example.com -r 'two words'
#
# the shell will remove the single quotes and urlize will see:
#
#    urlize http://example.com/ check_http -H example.com -r two words
#
# You probably want:
#
#    urlize http://example.com/ \"check_http -H example.com -r 'two words'\"
