/listsockets

Usage:

/LISTSOCKETS [-sn] [-mstyle] [-Sfield] [-Ttype] [name]

Options and arguments:

-s

short form, list only world names

-n

print host and port in numeric form

-mstyle

Use style for pattern matching in other options (default: %{matching}).

-Sfield

Sort sockets by field. Field may be "name", "type", "character", "host", "port", "lines", "idle", or "-" (don't sort; this is the default). Only the first character is necessary.

-Ttype

list only worlds with a type matching the pattern type.

name

list only worlds with a name matching the pattern name.

The output will look something like this (unless the -s option is given):
