Just not in a way that breaks everything.One approach would be the use of an option flag on the query to obtain the new hierarchical output No flag = no output change. Would that suffice?
I think this would be a good way to proceed. John, has this been suggested as part of ASCP and does it need to be? If so, I can do it.
We would also need to understand if there would be any disruption to users of whois caused by changing the default output back to the traditional output.
Thanks to Randy and John for turning this into a reasonable discussion. michael
