Get some introduction into regular expressions.

In regular expressions (regexps) there exists the possiblity of targeting "classes" of characters: [a-z] would, for instance, mean any character from a to z, that would resemble every smallcap character. If you would want to include the capital characters too, you would write "[a-zA-Z]".

You will find more of these classes in a manual.

NAME
whois.conf - alternative WHOIS servers list for whois client SYNOPSIS
/etc/whois.conf DESCRIPTION
This file contains a list of WHOIS servers which can augment or override the built-in list of the client. It's a plain text file in ASCII encoding. Each line consists of two fields: a pattern to match WHOIS object identifier and a corresponding WHOIS server domain name. Fields are separated by non-empty sequence of space or a tabular characters. A line starting with a hash character is a free comment and it's not considered. The pattern is case-insensitive extended regular expression if whois client has been compiled with POSIX regular expressions support. Oth- erwise, simple case-insensitive suffix comparison against WHOIS object identifier is used. Internationalized domain names (IDN) must be specified in ascii-compatible encoding (ACE) format. EXAMPLE
.nz$ nz.whois-servers.net # Hangul Korean TLD .xn--3e0b707e$ whois.kr # Private ASNs ^as645(1[2-9]|2[0-9]|3[0-4])$ whois.example.net FILES
