     gnunet-gns [-c FILENAME | --config=FILENAME] [-h | --help]
		[-L LOGLEVEL | --loglevel=LOGLEVEL]
		[-l FILENAME | --logfile=FILENAME] [-r | --raw]
		[-t TYPE | --type=TYPE] [-u NAME | --lookup=NAME]

DESCRIPTION
     gnunet-gns can be used to lookup and process GNU Name Service names.

     -c FILENAME | --config=FILENAME
	     Use the configuration file FILENAME.

     -h | --help

	     and ERROR.

     -l FILENAME | --logfile=FILENAME
	     Write logs to FILENAME.

     -r | --raw
	     No unneeded output.  This is a quiet mode where only important  in-
	     formation	is  displayed.	 For  example a lookup for an IP address
	     will only yield the IP address, no descriptive text.

	     Resource Record Type (TYPE) to look for.  Supported TYPE's are:  A,
	     AAAA,  CNAME,  NS,  PKEY, PSEU, TLSA, SRV, SOA, MX, LEHO, VPN, REV,
	     PTR, TXT.	Defaults to "A".

     -u NAME | --lookup=NAME
	     Name to lookup.  Resolve the specified name using the GNU Name Sys-
	     tem.

     -T TIMEOUT | --timeout=TIMEOUT
	     How much time to wait for a resolution to	finish.   Example:  "5s"
	     for  5  seconds  or  "3m" for 3 minutes.  Defaults to "forever" (No
	     timeout).

     -v | --version
	     Print GNUnet version number.
