 1.21  30-Jan-2020  sevan finish with a full stop
 1.20  30-Jan-2020  sevan Drop url which is now invalid, see CSRG archive or mirrors on TUHS.org or
svnweb.FreeBSD.org
 1.19  22-Dec-2016  abhinav branches: 1.19.14; 1.19.16;
Instead of saying "The finger displays information..." say "The finger utility"
(not sure if it was intentionally written like that :)

Also, add an xref to fingerd(8)
 1.18  26-Dec-2014  christos branches: 1.18.2;
And correct it.
 1.17  26-Dec-2014  christos Correct the provenance of finger.1 and show the link that it was part of
2BSD (from Marcin F. Michalski)
 1.16  10-Jun-2012  dholland Fix description of -o option. Noted by Snader_LB on freenode.
 1.15  07-Aug-2003  agc branches: 1.15.56;
Move UCB-licensed code from 4-clause to 3-clause licence.

Patches provided by Joel Baker in PR 22365, verified by myself.
 1.14  30-Sep-2002  grant New sentence, new line.
 1.13  12-Sep-2002  wiz Sort options. Bump date for -8 addition.
 1.12  12-Sep-2002  kim Implement 8-bit pass-through.
 1.11  22-Mar-1999  garbled More and more .Os cleanups. .Os is defined in the tmac.doc-common file,
so we shouldn't override it with versions in the manpages. Many more to
come.
 1.10  18-Sep-1998  frueauf Remove duplicate paragraph, mention .forward file, fixes pr 6177 by
Andreas Wrede.
 1.9  19-Oct-1997  mrg merge lite-2. WARNSify. clean up .Nm.
 1.8  09-Sep-1997  mrg add -g flag: do not show non real name gecos info.
 1.7  09-Jan-1997  tls RCS ID police
 1.6  21-Nov-1996  lukem - add -h (show hostnames in short listing instead of office info), and
-o (the reverse of this, also the default)
- use vis(3) in vputc() instead of handcrufted function (from OpenBSD).
- move gecos expansion into expandusername() (a la sendmail's buildfname).
A generic version of this last bit in libutil would be useful...
- cleanup the code, fix prototypes, etc.
 1.5  25-Jul-1995  jtc Fix typo, noted by Masanobu Saitoh in PR #1272
 1.4  14-Feb-1994  cgd after -> before
 1.3  07-Oct-1993  brezak Whilst hacking the Net/2 version of finger to work on Solaris 2.2 (we
needed a finger on that platform which grokked the office/phone # GCOS
info), I decided to put mail status in (as the solaris version has
that).

The attached patch adds:
- manual page typos fixed: finger doesn't scan .forward, contrary to
what the man page says (and really shouldn't either, IMHO - that's
what telnet host SMTP & VRFY are for :)

- added a mail check (printed between login info and the project).
three different messages possible:
- if you have no mail:
No Mail.
- if you have mail, but there's no unread mail:
Mail last read DDD MMM ## HH:MM (TZ)
- if you have new mail:
New mail received DDD MMM ## HH:MM (TZ)
Unread since DDD MMM ## HH:MM (TZ)

- fixed the manual page.
