Description

Currently, there is no straightforward way to check the version of the CLI tool from the command line.

Image
neon@neon:~/Downloads/terminal/dnstt/bin$ ./dnstt --version 2>&1 | head -n 1
flag provided but not defined: -version
neon@neon:~/Downloads/terminal/dnstt/bin$ ./dnstt -v 2>&1 | head -n 1
flag provided but not defined: -v

Expected Behavior

It would be helpful to support a standard flag such as:

  • --version
  • -v

These flags should print the current version of the tool and exit.

Why this is useful

  • Aligns with common CLI conventions
  • Helps with debugging and reporting issues
  • Improves usability for users and developers

Example

$ dnstt --version
dnstt 1.2.3

Additional Context

Many CLI tools follow this convention, so adding it would improve consistency and user experience.
