Does anyone know how to turn off the trailing i's in the output of finger?
I'm running Interactive Unix 2.2 with Interactive TCP/IP 1.2.0 and when
I finger a machine with 'finger @machine' or 'finger user at machine'
(including my local host) all lines are end with the character 'i' as:
$ finger @hafro
[hafro]

This happens for all remote machines I've tried, including Sun 3, Sun 4,
hp-ux and ISC 2.2. The local commands 'finger' and 'finger user' work fine.
Does anyone know if this is really such a silly bug or if it is something
I've missed in TFM?
