DESCRIPTION

    A Perl interface to the web site http://5.gp. The service simply
    maintains a database of long URLs, each of which has a unique
    identifier.

FUNCTIONS

 makeashorterlink

    The function makeashorterlink will call the http://5gp web site passing
    it your long URL and will return the shorter version.

 makealongerlink

    The function makealongerlink does the reverse. makealongerlink will
    accept as an argument either the full URL or just the identifier.

    If anything goes wrong, then either function will return undef.
