Lookup tab #27

Description

Existing features:

  • Enter address

Um, this is a bit unclear. In Snow Leopard, this was clearly a dig front-end:

But in Catalina, the "select the information to lookup" drop-down is gone, and the output vastly simplified:

However, that's not the (default) output of host, dig, or dscacheutil, for that matter?

I feel like we should do these new features:

  • Let users choose between dscacheutil and dig and explain why (see below)
  • When choosing dig, bring back the drop-down to let users choose a particular record
  • For dig: -x (reverse lookup). Either in the above drop-down, or as a checkbox.
(•) macOS Directory Services (`dscacheutil`): matches Safari's behavior
( ) BIND (`dig`): matches Unix behavior, and offers more option
