Sometimes people cannot find the link in the markdown based on the link in the markup that is getting the https status code.

If there is a way to provide the markdown, filename and line number that might help.

I currently dont see any easy way for the program to translate back from the link in the markup to the exact line of code in the markdown that has the problem.

Possible this program could be completely re-engineered to take the links from the markdown in the first, convert these to markup, check them, then report back issues linked to the original markdown... (???)
