                     20: The \fIimisc\fR program requests an operation from
                     21: the miscellaneous network service
                     22: provided by a server using remote operations services.
                     23: The currently supported operations are:
                     24: .sp
                     25: .in +.5i

                     29: \fButctime\fR  the universal time
                     30: \fBgentime\fR  the generalized time
                     31: \fBtime\fR     the current time since the epoch
                     32: \fBusers\fR    the users logged in on the system
                     33: \fBchargen\fR  the character generation pattern
                     34: \fBqotd\fR     the quote of the day
                     35: \fBfinger\fR   the finger of users logged in
                     36: \fBpwdgen\fR   some pseudo-randomly generated passwords
                     37: \fBtell\fR     send a message to a remote user
                     38: \fBping\fR     ping test for performance measurement

                     45: This program initiates remote operations to the \*(lqisode
                     46: miscellany\*(rq service.
                     47: .PP
                     48: The prefix arguments are used to direct how many times the performance
                     49: measurement tests should run:
                     50: the `-c\0count' switch indicates the number of iterations to try,
                     51: and the `-l\0length' switch indicates the number of octets to send as
                     52: user data for each iteration.
                     53: .PP
                     54: If no operation is given on the command line,
                     55: then \fIimisc\fR enters interactive mode:
                     56: \fIimisc\fR will examine each line of the standard\-input,
                     57: treating the first word as the operation, and any remaining words as
                     58: arguments.
                     59: (Currently, only the \fIfinger\fR operation takes arguments.)
                     60: .PP
                     61: The pseudo\-operations \fIhelp\fR and \fIquit\fR do the obvious things.
