  10. NAME
  11. ----
  12. tor-resolve - resolve a hostname to an IP address via tor
  13. SYNOPSIS
  14. --------
  15. **tor-resolve** [-4|-5] [-v] [-x] [-p __socksport__] __hostname__ [__sockshost__[:__socksport__]]
  16. DESCRIPTION
  17. -----------
  18. **tor-resolve** is a simple script to connect to a SOCKS proxy that knows about
  19. the SOCKS RESOLVE command, hand it a hostname, and return an IP address.
  20. By default, **tor-resolve** uses the Tor server running on 127.0.0.1 on SOCKS
  21. port 9050. If this isn't what you want, you should specify an explicit
  22. __sockshost__ and/or __socksport__ on the command line.
  23. OPTIONS
  24. -------
  25. **-v**::
  26. Display verbose output.
  27. **-x**::

  29. **-5**::
  30. Use the SOCKS5 protocol. (Default)
  31. **-4**::
  32. Use the SOCKS4a protocol rather than the default SOCKS5 protocol. Doesn't
