Caution - At one point I was running a greasemonkey script to replace religious words with funny alternatives. Had a bad time when I installed it and forgot about it and it replaced my manager's first name, Christian, with the funny alternative.
This looks to be a very specific tool to check URLs on the command line. Terminal emulators don't care about that. Even shells running in those terminal emulators don't care about those specifics because why would they. One could easily want to do something with a funny url like that that doesn't involve content fetching etc.
