- Worth noticing
- Each line has its own expiry; the published format is also readable by a hand-written .plan on a classic finger server.
Field notes
The sample document separates relatively stable profile fields from a timestamped status line, including when that line was set and when it expires. The homepage says updates can be sent with a shell one-liner or an HTTPS request using a token, and that the format is published for compatibility with a hand-written .plan on a classic finger server.
