Who can make this script smaller?



Hi there,

Working on humbolt, I needed a program that could filter all URLs out of a
html page. So I tried some things I found in my Perl book, and made this
filter:

tr -d '\n'|perl -e '$_=<>;s/(<[Aa][^<]+<\/[Aa]>)/\n<lI>$1\n/g;print;'|grep lI

It started as a 125 byte script, I tried to make it smaller and smaller, now
it's 78 bytes (newline included). 
It's pretty fool-proof now, it worked on freshmeat.net's and slashdot.org's
index.html
Does someone know how to make this script smaller?
Why?
For fun!!



Regards,

Maarten
