dog

In this case it seems like the creator of this tool already knew golang so he used it. From the readme: > It's totally inspired from dog [0] which is written in Rust. I wanted to add some features to it but since I don't know Rust, I found it as a nice opportunity to experiment with writing a DNS Client from scratch in Go myself. Hence the name dog +go => doggo. [0] https://github.com/ogham/dog

TIL there's also dog[1] Which is probably also common typo for "dig" [1] https://github.com/ogham/dog

Reminds me of https://github.com/ogham/dog

> As a user of the "--color" flag for the `ip` command, I'd love to see tools like dig produce more modern output https://github.com/ogham/dog is pretty good in that regard

Alternatively, use dog (https://github.com/ogham/dog) > dog A readlang.com A readlang.com. 1h57m12s 139.144.234.197 > dog A someinvalidserver.com Status: NXDomain

There's this, which is a more modern dig, with color output, among other things: https://github.com/ogham/dog There's also stuff like this, which will postprocess & color output from any command: https://github.com/garabik/grc, or https://github.com/armandino/TxtStyle

See also "dog" which I've been using for a while, works well. https://github.com/ogham/dog I actually already have a "q" alias, I think single-letter aliases are probably quite common. Are there many other well-known utilities with a single-letter name? Edit: Turns out I have one installed, "z", a universal archiver front-end. https://legacy.cs.indiana.edu/~kinzler/z/

Quite like using dog too https://github.com/ogham/dog

dog is a nice modern take on dig https://github.com/ogham/dog

There are binaries, at least, for three targets: https://github.com/ogham/dog/releases

I agree: https://github.com/ogham/dog/issues/7
