| Summary : A Perl implementation of a finger client.
|
Description :
Net::Finger is a simple, straightforward implementation of a finger client
in Perl -- so simple, in fact, that writing this documentation is almost
unnecessary.
This module has one automatically exported function, appropriately entitled
\'finger()\'. It takes two arguments:
* *
A username or email address to finger. (Yes, it does support the vaguely
deprecated \"userAATThostAATThost\" syntax.) If you need to use a port other than
the default finger port (79), you can specify it like so:
\"usernameAATThostname:port\".
* *
(Optional) A boolean value for verbosity. True == verbose output. If you
don\'t give it a value, it defaults to false. Actually, whether this
output will differ from the non-verbose version at all is up to the
finger server.
\'finger()\' is context-sensitive. If it\'s used in a scalar context, it will
return the server\'s response in one large string. If it\'s used in an array
context, it will return the response as a list, line by line. If an error
of some sort occurs, it returns undef and puts a string describing the
error into the package global variable \'$Net::Finger::error\'. If you\'d like
to see some excessively verbose output describing every step \'finger()\'
takes while talking to the other server, put a true value in the variable
\'$Net::Finger::debug\'.
Here\'s a sample program that implements a very tiny, stripped-down
finger(1):
use Net::Finger;
use Getopt::Std;
use vars qw($opt_l);
getopts(\'l\');
$x = finger($ARGV[0], $opt_l);
if ($x) {
print $x;
} else {
warn \"$0: error: $Net::Finger::error\
\";
}
