What is 'ETQW Zerver BrowZer'?
 
  It's a 3rd part stand alone server browser for the game ET:Quake Wars by Splash Damage and id Software.

Features:
  - List all active ET:QW-servers together with players and cvars on those servers.
  - Instantly join any server directly from the browser.

How to use it:
  1) Start it up
  2) Go into settings
  3) Point out where your copy of etqw.exe is located, to be able to quick-launch it.
  4) Press OK

Tips'n'tricks:
  - To Join a selected server, right-click and choose 'Join Server'.
  - For easy info-retrival and sharing, drag'n'drop server-info to the Input-field at the bottom.

How to extend the usage of FriendsList:
  The FriendsList filter-option uses MatchesMask which makes it possible to enter partial nicks and wildcards.
  * = wildcard, any number of characters, any character.
  ? = one character can be of any kind.
  [zs] = a set of chars is allowed for one character, here z and s. Used like a constraint ?.
  Example: To search for my nick, nomatter what clan-tag I carry and incase you don't remember if it starts with z or s, add *[zs]arkow to the friends.lst.
 
  Using wildcards or a lot of ?/sets will increase the chance of false positives, i.e. getting hits on people that you don't want to see. For example, typing *a* will return every server that contains any player that  has an 'a' anywhere in it's nick. So use them wisely.

  Due to char-constraints of the syntax, the chars [,],* are autoconverted to ? upon adding a player via the PlayerList of a server.
