I wanted to show how to check who has old gear, or who is missing stuff. Is there a better way to do this?

Start by downloading cygwin (linux command line), windows power shell may have something similar.

/dga /outputfile inventory

Open up Cygwin and go to your EQ directory. On my computer I get there by typing this

INI:
 ~
$ cd D:

/cygdrive/d
$ cd Users/Public/Daybreak\ Game\ Company/Installed\ Games/EverQuest/

Use case 1, who has missing / old stuff in a specific slot, Shoulders in this case

INI:
grep -v Bank *_cazic-Inventory.txt  | grep -v General | grep Shoulders | grep -v Slot
AAAA_cazic-Inventory.txt:Shoulders    Icicle Drape    163123  1       6
BBBB_cazic-Inventory.txt:Shoulders   Mantle of the Sorrowful Spirit  163125  1       6
CCCC_cazic-Inventory.txt:Shoulders  Drape of the Ape        120017  1       6
DDDD_cazic-Inventory.txt:Shoulders  Elegant Combatant's Pauldrons   50447   1       6

Everyone that has specific gear name in a slot, like "Defiant" or "Icicle Drape"

INI:
$ grep -v Bank *_cazic-Inventory.txt  | grep -v General | grep Defiant
XXXX_cazic-Inventory.txt:Head       Elaborate Defiant Chain Coif    50192   1       6
XXXX_cazic-Inventory.txt:Arms       Elaborate Defiant Chain Sleeves 50193   1       6
XXXX_cazic-Inventory.txt:Wrist      Elaborate Defiant Chain Bracer  50188   1       6
XXXX_cazic-Inventory.txt:Wrist      Elaborate Defiant Chain Bracer  50188   1       6
XXXX_cazic-Inventory.txt:Range      Elaborate Defiant Recurve Bow   50614   1       6
XXXX_cazic-Inventory.txt:Hands      Elaborate Defiant Chain Gauntlets       50190   1       6


If you just want to see what everyone has sorted by slot (so that you know what to camp), you can do this

INI:
grep -v Bank *_cazic-Inventory.txt  | grep -v General | grep -v Slot  | sed -e "s@:@   @g" | awk '{ print $2 "\t" $1 "\t" $3 " " $4 " " $5}' | sort
