Ok, I offered my changes to finger to allow finger user at host etc. and
got a list of customers. The added files are no problem (server,
routines) but I do a 'diff /usr/src/ucb/finger.c finger.c > diff.out'
and it looks like gibberish to ME. What is the preference here?
Some of the entries just look like:

487a544,546
> 	fflush(stdout) ;
> remote :
> 	doremote() ;

it seems to me you would have to be pretty lucky to decode that,
especially in the case of finger.c which you probably hacked already.
Suggestions welcome.
