WS-Finger -- WS-Finger is offered in both 16-bit and
32-bit versions and includes both a Finger client and a Whois client. An
addressbook allows users to save commonly called users and their
addresses for use in either Finger or Whois calls. Also included is a
listing of common Whois servers to use in searches. This is a
well-designed client that should definitely be downloaded if you
regularly do Finger or Whois searches. However, the same
information can be obtained from the Finger and Whois servers
located on many Web pages.
Pros: Integrated Finger client and Whois client, useful addressbook
Cons: Many Web sites will do the same thing without occupying
drive space
New: Text search capabilities, automatic installation program,
32-bit version
Version Reviewed: 16-bit - 1.7. 32-bit - 1.7 Alpha 2
Date of Review: 6/23/96 Reviewer: Forrest Stroud
