Hi,

I stumbled upon Conquest the other day and ended up spending the
better part of three hours playing it with my wife.  It's a terrific
game with a great GL client - it's too bad that it doesn't appear to
be too popular these days.


  :(  Yeah - COD5 seems to be considered 'better' in some way :)
  Conquest is an old game - I'm glad people still play it once and a
  while.  I have been seriously remis in playing - maybe next week
  sometime.

Anyway, I got to thinking that it would be useful to have an automated
script let us know if anyone else happened to be online.  I wrote this
up quickly in AWK; it assumes you have the gawk implementation and
are sending mail to local users but it might be handy for someone
else.


  Thanks!
