+The Synchronet Finger Client module (''[[dir:exec]]/finger.js'') supports the [[wp>Finger]] protocol over TCP ([[RFC>1288|RFC 1288]]) for the purposes of querying information about users of remote systems.
+It is normally available for use by remote BBS ([[server:Terminal]] server) users from the Chat menu:
