This is Murple's hacked up version of fwhois by Chris Cappuccio. I have
made a few minor changes to the source code, but the primary difference
is that there is now a -d flag. The -d flag will produce output in the
machine readable dump format.

From the original fwhois README:

"Fwhois is a finger-style whois for BSD systems. It is smaller and more
compact then the standard InterNIC whois.c, and also runs in a different
manner. fwhois user@whois.internic.net would be the same as 'whois -h
whois.internic.net user'. This command is espically useful in environments
where different servers are queued, e.g. an organization with multiple
whois servers running for different purposes. This type of command
can also be useful when a user or group of users makes frequent use
of many different whois servers. If a user simply types 'fwhois user'
without a hostname, fwhois will automatically use host
whois.internic.net."

To compile, type: make
To install, type: make install

Please direct any bug reports to murple@erols.com, rather than bothering
Chris with a bug that in all likelyhood was introduced by me.
