Tool for querying gaming servers
qstat [options ...] [-default server-type] [-cfg file] [-f file] [host[:port]] ...
Where host is an IP address or host name
Qstat provides a simple interface for querying servers for a number of games, including but not limited to quake, quakeworld, quake2, quake3arena, unreal tournament or half-life.
For servers running a game, the server name, map name, current number of players, and response time are displayed. Server rules and player information may also be displayed.
