8 days	refactor: move initial URL parsing into function 'convertToURL'	demo

8 days	chore: add urls.csv shortcodes file	demo

8 days	docs: add some comments	demo

8 days	feat: add a user agent header!	demo

8 days	feat: add "total entries" as part of XML comment	demo
	This is useful mostly in the context of maxURLs=∞, but perhaps it could also help catch some error cases.
8 days	feat: prettify stats when figure was passed in as 0	demo
	The code understands 0 as "no limit", but I want to convey the no-limit concept to readers of the file who don't have a notion of how the program works. So I convert 0 to ∞ in the string output here.
8 days	feat: place comment before URL listing	demo
	There could be a lot of URLs, so this should be more user-friendly.
8 days	feat: add comment logging maxDepth and maxURLs inside xml output	demo

8 days	chore: ignore xml output	demo
