Check for dead links in all files, with support for regex URL extraction and glob file patterns.

## Installation

    pip install blinkcheck

## Usage Examples

Check for dead links in all files, starting in the current directory.

    blinkcheck

Check for dead links in all Markdown `*.md` files of a specific `./docs` folder.

    blinkcheck --root ./docs -i *.md

Check for dead links in LaTeX `*.tex` files in the current directory with regex `\\url{(.*?)}`.  
If a regex contains one group constructs, the group is used as the link.

    blinkcheck -i *.tex -r "\\url{(.*?)}"

Only list failed links and do not verify SSL certificates.

    blinkcheck --skip-ssl --only-fails
