/listsockets

Usage:

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


Lists the sockets to which TinyFugue is connected.

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):

     LINES IDLE TYPE      NAME            HOST                       PORT
