Yes this would be far preferable.
I also agree, just confused about how this is accomplished within the
Ringlink program (.htaccess file)?

No, no. With directives in an .htaccess file you configure an Apache web
server directly.
I'm talking about just having Ringlink print the appropriate CGI
response headers, i.e. instead of just
print "Location: http://www.example.com/some/site.html\n\n";;
the Ringlink program would include
print "Status: 301 Moved Permanently\n";
print "Location: http://www.example.com/some/site.html\n\n";;
The web server would convert those CGI response headers to the
equivalent HTTP response headers. You wouldn't need to do anything.
Btw, I have already made the changes in the Ringlink CVS repository.
