Did you know that the whois(1) that comes with FreeBSD has equivalent
functionality to ipw and dnw?  It knows about the whois databases for
most TLD's and can follow references to other whois databases.  Eg.

    happy-idiot-talk:~:% whois freebsd.com
    
    Whois Server Version 1.3
    
    Domain names in the .com, .net, and .org domains can now be registered
    with many different competing registrars. Go to http://www.internic.net
    for detailed information.
    
       Domain Name: FREEBSD.COM
       Registrar: NETWORK SOLUTIONS, INC.
       Whois Server: whois.networksolutions.com
       Referral URL: http://www.networksolutions.com
       Name Server: FREEFALL.N-R-G.COM
       Name Server: BARBARELLA.N-R-G.COM
