I've written a little Perl wrapper for Steve Jankowsi's excellent


qstat program. My program, qsmon.cgi, allows you to specify one or more


Quake servers via editing the program itself, listing the servers in a


hyperlink reference to qsmon.cgi, or letting qsmon give you a form to


fill-in with the Quake server(s). Once qsmon.cgi has a Quake server


address(es), it lets qstat query the server and return the stats which


qsmon.cgi then formats into a nice-looking web page. To give it a try,


go here:



Try qsmon.cgi



To get the Perl source, go here:



Get the qsmon.cgi source



Of course, you'll also need qstat 1.5. get it here:



qstat home page



I've only run qsmon.cgi under unix, but it should work under other OSs that


support Perl (i.e. NT).



Enjoy!
