# Wig
|
|
|
|
A simple and lightweight dns client written in C
|
|
|
|
## How to
|
|
|
|
`usage: wig [@server] [options] domain [qtype]`
|
|
|
|
For simple usage, just type the domain name followed by the record type: `example.com AAAA`. Or you can just type the domain, `example.com`, and it will default to the A record.
|
|
|
|
If you want to use a custom dns server, just specify the ip or domain after the @ like `@1.1.1.1` or `@ns1.google.com`.
|
|
|
|
If you want to specify a port, you can add `-p port_num`.
|
|
|
|
Finally, if you want to force tcp, you can add `-t`.
