"whois" equivalent in CMD?

[mikeshn]

I use "whois" command to check whois. What similar program can be used in CMD (Command Program)?

Thanks

dns

Synopsis:
dns [-cmd { ... }] [-flush] [-list] nick [nick1 nick2]

Description:
Will whois a nick and then provide a reverse DNS ip lookup. A -cmd { } structure can be used todo something with that particular result. -flush will clear the whois buffer in case of a problem. -list will display pending whois requests.

Examples:
/dns buddhax
/dns -cmd { echo $* } buddhax


nslookup

Synopsis:
nslookup [-cmd { ... }] host1 [[host2] [host3] ...]

whois

Synopsis:
whois [<nickname>]

Description:
The whois command is used to retrieve moderately detailed information about the nickname(s) specified. whois may be used on multiple nicknames at once, provided they are delimited with commas. If a server name is specified, that server will be queried instead of the client's current server. If no arguments are given, the whois will be performed on the client itself.

Examples:
To get information on users JoeBob, ToeJam, and JuneBug:
/whois joebob,toejam,junebug


Description:
This command will attempt to lookup a hostname, ip. As well you can lookup multiple hosts or ips. A alias or cmd may be specified which is then performed on each. If a failure occurs, then the failing name is returned, whereas on success, the name and the associated ip's are returned. There is also a hook which can be used only upon those nslookups without a -cmd.

Examples:
To nslookup a ip:
/nslookup ip

To nslookup a ip and perform a command:
/nslookup -cmd { echo $G $* } hostname


Good enough?
