Whoud you mind to add an `timeout` argument?

[Karobben]

This program is great! But it runs very slow when it comes to too many deadlinks. All the threads are just stuck for a very long time. It'll take hours to finish the progress. So, I wonder if we can set a timeout argument, let's say, 10s, would greatly improve the experience!

Can you describe this feature? Is it timeout for the whole cli? or just for one of the "bad" links?

Thanks for responding to me. I think an argument for all the links would be cool. The thing was, I ran deadlinks http://localhost:4000/ -n 10 -e -r 2. It worked fine in the beginning. But there were so many deadlinks in my html, I guess. So, it ran slowly when it went to 37%.

I left it running last to another morning, it stuck at 99% and never updated again... It even cannot be ceased by ctrl c

I got it. Is this a project I also can try (published online or opensource)?

As for the feature, lets added it to to-do list, but just be aware: I have few blockers: time and reppy module, so adding this can take a while... I suggest you watch for releases in this project so you will be notified once feature landed.
