Overview
metapilot is a useful utility for querying the metaserver. It works by awarding points to servers if they have current players or match any of the criteria listed on the command line or in a .metapilotrc file. The format of the .metapilotrc file is simple; examples are given below to illustrate what is possible. Only servers with positive points are printed.
Command line examples
The following are typical command line invocations:
metapilot --player Viper --map Blood
Will print any server with a player called Viper (or XViperX) or runnning a Blood's Music variant.
metapilot --server cam.ac.uk rubin.e.kth.se
Will print any servers running in the *.cam.ac.uk domain and on rubin.
Metapilotrc example
Placing the following in ~/.metapilotrc achieves the same effect as the first command line example above:
player:Viper
map:Blood
