bnstat - Battle.net statisics client
bnstat [
options] [
servername [
serverport]]
bnstat is a simple Battle.net client emulator that can be used to gather
player statistics. It is also compatible with FSGS servers, but has difficulty
with real Battle.net servers.
If no
servername is specified, localhost is assumed. If no
serverport is specified, 6112 is assumed. If no player is specified on
the command line, will connect to the server and prompt for
one from stdin. All available statistics for the emulated client type are
formatted and displayed on stdout.
- -b
- Causes bnstat to emulate a Brood Wars client.
- --client
- Causes bnstat to emulate a specific client. The
following client tags are recognized: DRTL DSHR STAR SSHR SEXP W2BN. There
are short options which may be used instead for the common clients.
- --bnetd
- Also attempt to gather bnetd(1) specific
information.
- -d
- Causes bnstat to emulate a Diablo client.
- --fsgs
- Also attempt to gather FSGS specific information.
- -h --help --usage
- Print usage information and exit.
- -k --cdkey
- Causes bnstat to report an alternate key to the
bnetd(1) server.
- -o --owner
- Causes bnstat to report an alternate owner to the
bnetd(1) server.
- -p --player
- Gather statistics only for the specified player and then
exit. This also avoids using login and terminal functions allowing it to
be used in shell scripts.

- -v --version
- Print its version number and exit.
- -w
- Causes bnstat to emulate a Warcraft II BNE
client.
The current version is available with the bnetd distribution at:
This program assumes that the terminal will move to the beginning of the current
line when the carriage return character (^M) is printed. It also assumes the
backspace character (^H) will move one column to the left that character
printed after that will replace those already on the screen.
The terminal settings are not consulted for keybindings. The following are
assumed:
- ^H
- delete the character to the left of the cursor
- ^J
- accept current line
- ^M (return)
- accept current line
- ^T
- transpose the last two characters
- ^W
- delete word to the left of the cursor
- ^U
- delete the whole input line
- ^[ (escape)
- cancel the current input line
- ^? (delete)
- delete the character to the left of the cursor
