Hi all,

One more that's been on the backburner for a while and which I finally
committed today:
 gwhois is a generic whois client. It strives to know for all existing
 tlds and all ip address range the appropiate whois server to ask. You
 can simple call gwhois with a query for some domain or some ip and it
 will ask the right server for you! It can even query webforms which
 are unfortunately the only query type supported by many bad nics.

 gwhois can also be used as a whois server. You can call it from the
 inetd and make it accessable via a normal standard whois client. This
 allows for example using a windows client and still make use of the
 enhanced features of gwhois.

Please review and let me know if I can make any improvements.
