NAME
    who.cgi

SYNOPSIS
    http[s]://<parent-url>/who.cgi[?host=<host>[:<port> ||
    &port=<port>]&quiet=1]

DESCRIPTION
    who.cgi is a *Perl5* CGI program (that is fully compatible with
    Apache::Registry) that shows a highlighted list of players on a MUSH
    (with any URLS automatically converted into links), or any type of
    server that supports the WHO command at login. It recognizes PUEBLO
    enhanced servers and can show a prettier PUEBLO login screen for them.

USAGE
    who.cgi

    Will show a screen allowing the user to supply all the possible options.

    who.cgi?host=mush.pennmush.org

    Shows the login screen and WHO listing for M*U*S*H, my home MUSH. Since
    I didn't give the port number 4201 (the default for PennMUSH) is
    assumed. "quiet=1" would tell it not to show the whole login screen.

    who.cgi?host=mush.pennmush.org:4201

    Same thing, but the port is specified explicitly.

    who.cgi?host=mush.pennmush.org:4201&quiet=1

    Same, but the login screen is not shown.

TODO
    Add INFO command support with a header line that includes a telnet:/
    link.

    Support for RWHO and any other WHO formats is needed. And for
    server-side bots is needed to support a greater number of functions
    (such as finger), this might be better done in a separate system.

HISTORY
    0.5 06/01/2000 Started keeping track. Made non-blocking on socket more
    portable, and improved the error messages. Released on SourceForge.

    0.6 06/06/2000 Made "show login" and port 4201 the defaults. Highlights
    ads in @doings as invokations of the script. Links highlighted in login
    screen. Some very simple, but working ANSI support. Much more compatible
    with other types of MU*s. Doesn't use POST for form anymore, works
    better with history. SIGNIFICANTLY cleaner code.
