Could the same redirects that tinyurl does be set up in an Apache server on the IBM i?

Thanks,

This is old code but might be useful.

This is the relevant section:

* Start PC Organizer if not started.
C eval wCmdString = 'STRPCO PCTA(*NO)'
C callp(e) pQCmdExc(wCmdString:
C %len(%trim(wCmdString)) )
...
* Run the command.
C eval wCommand =
C 'start ' + 'http://target.site.com'
C eval wCmdString = 'strpccmd pccmd('''
C + %trim(wCommand)
C + ''') pause(*NO)'
C callp pQCmdExc(wCmdString:
C %len(%trim(wCmdString))

Anyone know how, if possible, to have a green screen make a call to
