+ WHAT IS THAT ?
+=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-o +
There is (as far as I know) no easy way to send an order to a
server from a simple bash script under Windows or Linux, for
instance a cronjob changing maps or adding passwords at
specific times. In order to do something as trivial as that in
a script, one needs PERL socket programming or some ugly unix
pipes hack. I have no idea if this is even doable under
Windows.
This program is a very simple tool, written in C++, allowing
anybody to send any command to any server using the Quake3
protocol, which is the case of Jedi Knight servers, without any
unnecessary hassle.
+ HOW DO I USE IT ?

Running the executable without any argument displays some help
text:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
** Quake3 Commander v. 0.1
** by Gamall Wednesday Ida
** email : gamall.ida@gmail.com
** web : gamall-ida.com
Usage: ./qcmd -ip 127.0.0.1 -p 21000 -c rcon MyPass map mp/ffa3
Other options :
-format : clean display for query 'getinfo' or 'getstatus'
-timeout: seconds before timeout [def=2]
-retries: if timeout, how many times do I try ? [def=2]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Note that depending on your system and where you put the
executable, you might not need the "./" before the command
name. And never under Windows. This is not specific to this
program anyway :P
Let us see some example of commands and the corresponding
output of the program. Here the RCon password of my server is
set to "MyPass". Note that the script need not be run on the
same system than the server. If it is, however, you can use the
IP "127.0.0.1" or "localhost".
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
./qcmd -ip 213.251.186.99 -p 29070
-c rcon MyPass say Hello there !
Time 'Sun Sep 30 18:06:19 2007'
To server '213.251.186.99:29070'
Command 'rcon MyPass say Hello there !'
Answer [ print
broadcast: print "server: Hello there !\n"
]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You can also use non-RCon commands such as getstatus or
getinfo:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
./qcmd -ip 213.251.186.99 -p 29070 -c getinfo
Time 'Sun Sep 30 18:13:34 2007'
To server '213.251.186.99:29070'
Command 'getinfo'
Answer [ infoResponse

\needpass\1\gametype\0\sv_maxclients\24\clients\0\mapname
\the_academy_v3\hostname\^1Dragon's Lair\protocol\26]
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
As you can see, the server's answer is, in that case, quite
illegible. Use the -format option to get a more readable
answer:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
./qcmd -ip 213.251.186.99 -p 29070 -c getinfo -format
Time 'Sun Sep 30 18:17:25 2007'
To server '213.251.186.99:29070'
Command 'getinfo'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Of course, since you will use this program inside a script, you
won't be there to read anything... but you can easily redirect
the output to a log file: the command
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
./qcmd -ip 213.251.186.99 -p 29070 -c getinfo -format >> mylog.txt
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Will append the output to the file "mylog.txt", and create the
file if it didn't already exist, so you can easily keep logs of
every command that is sent by your script/cronjob/etc. And for
once, it works the same way under both Windows and Linux :-)
There is no need to speak about -timeout and -retries, as the
default values should be perfect in most cases.
If the server doesn't answer, be it because you are targeting
the wrong IP:Port or sending an incorrect command, you can
expect a timeout error message:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
qcmd -ip 213.251.186.99 -p 29071 -c getstatus -format
Time 'Sun Sep 30 18:39:22 2007'
To server '213.251.186.99:29071'
Command 'getstatus'
Answer [
ERROR: Socket timeout, no reply received.
