NAME
     tor-resolve - resolve a hostname to an IP address via tor

SYNOPSIS
     tor-resolve  [-4|-5]  [-v]  [-x]  [-p socksport] hostname [sockshost[:sock-
     sport]]

DESCRIPTION
     tor-resolve is a simple script to connect to a SOCKS proxy that knows about
     the SOCKS RESOLVE command, hand it a hostname, and return an IP address.

     By default, tor-resolve uses the Tor server running on 127.0.0.1  on  SOCKS
     port  9050.  If  this  isn't  what you want, you should specify an explicit
     sockshost and/or socksport on the command line.

OPTIONS
     -v
	 Display verbose output.

     -x
	 Perform a reverse lookup: get the PTR record for an IPv4 address.

     -5
	 Use the SOCKS5 protocol. (Default)

     -4
	 Use the SOCKS4a protocol  rather  than  the  default  SOCKS5  protocol.
	 Doesn't support reverse DNS.

     -p socksport
	 Override the default SOCKS port without setting the hostname.

SEE ALSO
     tor(1), torify(1).
