This release of Prospero includes a standalone client to query archie
servers at various sites. It is standalone in the sense that, once
compiled, it does not require Prospero to be installed on the host
from which it is to be used. To build the archie client, type make
from the top level directory. The archie client will be build in the
user subdirectory.
If called with just a file name, it will query the archie database for
exact matches. If executed with no arguments it will display its
options.
Usage: archie [-[cehkrsxz][ltMT][NM #][H host][f? <farg>]] string
-c : case sensitive substring search
-e : exact string match (default)
-r : regular expression search
-s : case insensitive substring search
-K -k : case sensitive substring match
-X -x : regular expression match
-Z -z : case insensitive substring match
-h : ask for information about matching hosts
-fd -fc <arg> : specify domain or component filter
-l : list one match per line
-t : sort inverted by date
-E : expand directory and query responses from server
-M -MM : display the message of the day (MM immediate)
-T : display status information for server
-N # : specifies query niceness level (optional 0-35765)
-m # : specifies maximum number of hits to return
-H host : specifies server host
