finger (RFC 1288) server-side daemon
====================================

finger is both a protocol and a utility to get the information and status
from a user on a distant machine. It was standardized in `RFC 742`_
in 1977, then in `RFC 1288`_ in 1991, and has been abandoned since.

While describing the protocol in `a blog post of mine`_, I wanted
to implement this protocol for fun, but didn't want to present the
real information about the users on my server, so I made this to present
some fictional information in order to be able to tell a story through
finger.
