✨ ldns-zcat ✨

okay bestie, welcome to ldns-zcat, a whole lil tool from the General Commands Manual section 💅 she's here to put your split-up zone files back together like the world's most unbothered friendship-bracelet re-knotter 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

ldns-zcat — reunite (z)split up a zone files 💖

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

ldns-zcat zonefiles

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

so here's the vibe: ldns-zcat will read in a bunch of (z)split up zonefiles and creates a new larger zone file. literally just gluing the pieces back together, no cap 🧩✨

the SOA record in the first part is used as the SOA record in the generated zone. so like, first one wins, she's the main character 👑 that's just how it is.

the resulted zone file is printed to standard output. so pipe it, redirect it, whatever, she's not writing files for you, she's a printer not a saver 💅

✨ OPTIONS ✨

• -o ORIGIN — use ORIGIN when reading in the zone 🌍
• -v — show the version number and exit. that's it, that's the whole job, she says hi and dips 🙈
