"""
================================================================================
Create forward-link redirection pages for relocating a web site.
Generates one page for every existing site html file; upload the generated
files to your old web site.  See ftplib later in the book for ways to run
site uploads in scripts either after or during page file creation.

Added March 2014: 2.X compatibility, copy extra tools files at the end.
Added October 2015: make .html files for non .html items too, for servers
that support -- a x.jpg access may open a x.jpg.html file on some servers.
