% Whoisd Server Version: 2.2.0

% Usage:   whois [options] [[type] value]
% 
% Options:
%   -r       Switch off recursion. Only the object which is primary target
%            of query is returned.
%   -T type  Type of object to lookup (domain, nsset, contact, registrar).
%            There may be more types separated by comma without spaces
%            between them. The types are case-insensitive.
%   -i attr  Lookup object by its attribute. Attribute can be any of
%            attributes from object templates marked by flag "inverse key".
%            Attribute name is case-insensitive.
%   -q version    Returns version of whois server.
%   -q indexes    Returns list of attributes which can be used in search. The
%                 attributes have form object:attribute.
%   -q templates  Returns templates for all four object types.
% 
% There's yet another way how to specify a type of object to lookup. Just
% prefix the object's identifier with the name of a type. The following two
% examples are equivalent:
% 
%  $ whois -T domain nic.cz
% 
%  $ whois "domain nic.cz"
% 
% The -q parameter can be used only once and not in combination with any
% other option. The -i parameter can be used only once.
% 
% More information about this implementation of whois server can be found at
