thanks for the reply I am using bash shell

as for posting data, how can I use 'curl -d' to post the short URL? Is it going to automatically return the short URL on its own or is there a specific address I need to use from the API?

I am looking at this here

ApiDocumentation - bitly-api - bitly REST API method documentation - API Libraries and Documentation for bitly - Google Project Hosting

thanks again
