A modern whois client
Project description
jhwhois
Why?
Because I got fed up with various existing whois clients always querying the wrong server and the best one I could find, jwhois, haven't been updated in years. The default configuration is anything but good, it has a big tendency to query RADB for almost anything, an un-official database full of incorrect data.
So is it better?
For my use-cases it's way better than the others I've tried starting from very early in the development of it. For any other imaginable use-case, maybe not. I don't care, I made this for myself and nobody else.
I have a suggestion!
Feel free to open an issue or a PR and I'll take a look at it.
The code sucks!
I'm a network engineer, not a developer, so I'm 100% positive there's better ways to do certain things.
Documentation?
Read the code.
