Conference Categories | Apps Conference | FTP / Archie / Finger Topics http://www.tcac.com/~neuroses/progs/wsfngr95.zip jobrien@biddeford.com http://www.biddeford.com/~jobrien/ 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 apps conference Main Menu
