One question I had though was is there a way to format what prints out in a human readable format? And I actually found the answer elsewhere and thought I'd add it here: #:~$ dig soa tech-recipes.com @8.8.4.4 +multiline ; > DiG 9.6-ESV-R3 > soa tech-recipes.com @8.8.4.4 +multiline ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER Hi,
