SPECIAL FINGER TARGET SCRIPTS

This directory contains scripts implementing special finger targets.
The scripts name is one of the prefixes `s-', `l-', `x-', followed by
the target name.  s- and l- scripts implement short and long finger
requests, respectively, while x- script implement either.

The scripts are invoked with the peer IP address as the first argument,
and the word "local" or "remote" as second argument, depending on
where the connection comes from.  An exit code of 0 indicates the
finger request has been handled successfully; non-zero exit lets finger
process the target as an ordinary user name.  Scripts can thus be used
to shadow ordinary or built-in finger targets conditionally.
See the "noremote" script for an example.
