| INTERNET DICTIONARY - LETTER "Q" |
| QuakeSpy |
A Windows 95 program that retrieves via the Internet a list of active servers for gamers to connect to play the game Quake. QuakeSpy can parse any finger or Web page for IP addresses. It also features customizable filter settings to help weed through the Quake jungle. It then polls the sites on your list and determines the server name, map name, current and maximum players, and displays them starting with the lowest ping time. |
| query |
A question, usually used in connection with a search engine or database to find a particular file, Web site, record or set of records in a database. |
| queue |
Pronounced "cue or Q" - A waiting area for e-mail messages, files, print jobs, or anything else that is being sent from one device to another. With e-mail, it is common (and some say cost effective) to compose several letters while off-line and place them in the queue. When finished, you can get back on-line and then send them all at once. |
