NAME

finger - who a user is

SYNOPSIS

finger [user]

DESCRIPTION

The line about a person out of /etc/passwd — their name, home directory and shell — and then whatever they left in ~/.plan, which is what a .plan has always been for: a file you keep world-readable so that other people can read it. It is the long answer whoami used to give.

rm ~/.plan and finger says No Plan., which is also what it has always done.

EXAMPLES

finger tilen
