Description
A plea...
Deanna and I have been running this site since 2008 and lately we're seeing a big increase in
users (and cost) but a decline in percentage of users who donate. Our ad-free and junkware-free
download site only works if everyone chips in to offset the revenue that ads on other sites bring
in. Please donate at the bottom of the page. Every little bit helps. Thank you so much.
Sincerely,
your Older Geeks: Randy and Deanna

[-r] If you specify this option, the top remark lines of the WHOIS record are automatically removed.
[-n] If you specify this option, WhoisCL will get the correct WHOIS server from xx.whois-servers.net, instead of using the internal WHOIS servers list.

Creating whois-servers.txt
Starting from version 1.20, you can create your own WHOIS servers list to override the default servers defined by WhoisCL.
In order to use this feature, follow the instructions below:

Create a file named 'whois-servers.txt' in the same folder of WhoisCL.exe
Add the needed servers to the list. Each line should contain the domain extension, a space character, and then the whois server address. For example:

gov whois.nic.gov
com rs.internic.net
il whois.isoc.org.il
ir whois.nic.ir

In the next time that you run WhoisCL, the specified servers will be used instead of the default servers list stored in WhoisCL.

Be aware that WhoisCL only supports WHOIS servers in port 43. It doesn't support Web-based WHOIS requests.
