💖 hostbyname — the SquidGuard documentation glow-up 💖

okay bestie, so this one's hostbyname(1) from the SquidGuard documentation set, and honestly? she's a little chaotic but she's trying her best. let's get into it 🫶

---

✨ NAME ✨

hostbyname — expand a domain or urls list with IP addresses 💅

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

hostbyname < urls > urls+ip

hostbyname  < domains > domains+ip

like. she reads from stdin, she writes to stdout. classic pipes girlie behavior ✨

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Hostbyname takes a squidGuard domain list or a squidGuard urls list, and does some half harted effort to expand it with the corresponding IP-addresses.

bestie. "half harted." that is a direct quote from the source material 💀 the manpage literally admits she's not giving 100%. she's giving like... 60%. maybe 55%. but she IS giving, and that's what matters 🎀
