- Introduction
-
- After the summer holiday, I have no idea what to do, and was not ready to
- start working on my master degree.
-
- Finger 3.1, by Lee Murach (Internet: lee@nrc.com, CompuServe: 71161,651
- Tel:(805) 484-2128), program that I've used very often for finding out
- whether my friends on Internet logged or not, becomes an inspiration.
- Since this is my first attempt to program something for Windows Sockets,
- functions written by Lee Murach were very helpful, and this is the right
- place to thank him a lot.
-
- Finger 1.0 is a Windows Sockets finger client. You may use Finger to query
- for users on a remote host. Finger 1.0 uses the asynchronous WS extensions.
-
-
- Contents
-
- The Finger 1.0 was built with the Borland C++ 3.1, using Borland OWL 1.0.
-
- finger.prj Finger's project file.
- finger.cpp Finger's user interface. This module processes all user
- input, and displays query results and errors.
- netwrkm.cpp Finger's network module. It isolates the network
- interface from the rest of the program, and uses
- asynchronous WS calls to query the remote host.
- finger.rc Specifies resources.
- finger.h Finger's header file.
- fingerrc.h Constants used in resource script file.
- finger.def Definition file.
- finger.ico The finger icon.
- readme.* You're reading it now.
- winsock.h Header file for winsock.dll.
- winsock.lib Import library for winsock.dll.
- finger.exe The executable.
-
-
- Requirements
-
- To run Finger, you'll need access to a remote host which runs a finger
- server.
-
- Since finger dynamically links to the winsock.dll, you'll need a TCP/IP
- implementation that provides a Windows Sockets interface.

- Release Notes
-
- At the beginning I have no intention to upload this, but at the end I like
- what came out and decided to upload. That is the reason that the source
- code is not commented very well and the documentation is also very poor.
- Apologize for that.
