Release Notes

Added

• Word and line cursor motions in the domain input: Option/Alt+←/→ (or
  Ctrl+←/→, or Alt+B/F) moves the cursor by one dot-separated label;
  Cmd+←/→ (or Home/End, or Ctrl+A/E) jumps to the start/end of the input.
  Cmd is reported via the kitty keyboard protocol, enabled when the
  terminal supports it. (#17)
• Argument parsing via clap: --help and --version now work, invalid
  arguments get proper error messages, and an optional record-type
  positional (dnsglobe example.com TXT) sets the starting record type in
  TUI mode too — previously it was only honored with --once. The long
  --help also documents $DNSGLOBE_CONFIG and the config-file syntax.
• Anycast site geolocation: large anycast resolvers (Quad9, Cloudflare,
  Google, OpenDNS, CleanBrowsing, Neustar UltraDNS) are asked which POP is
  answering via identification queries (id.server CH TXT and
  operator-specific probes). The discovered site shows in the Loc column
  (e.g. →YUL) and the resolver's map dot moves to the POP actually serving
  you. (#13)
• Cache-expiry countdowns: a live Exp column next to the static TTL shows
  when each resolver's cache entry must be refetched; the propagation gauge
  shows the fleet-wide bound ("old answers expire in ≤ X"). Watch mode skips
  re-polling resolvers that agree with the majority until their TTL runs out.
  (#12)
• TTL advisory: once a round settles with full agreement and the zone's TTL
  is ≥ 1 hour, a footer hint suggests lowering the TTL before a planned
  record change. (#12)
• Stale-cache verdicts in watch mode: ! PAST TTL flags a resolver serving
  an answer past its own reported TTL, ↻ UPSTREAM flags one that refetched
  and still got old data back (e.g. a lagging secondary authoritative
  server). Both surface in the status column and on the map.
  (#12)
• TOML config file for custom resolvers: add to (or replace) the built-in
  list via ~/.config/dnsglobe/config.toml (XDG-aware, DNSGLOBE_CONFIG
  override). Entries take a name and IPv4/IPv6 address, plus optional
  location and lat/lon for the world map; invalid config is rejected at
  startup with the offending entry named.
  (#11)
• CI workflow running cargo fmt, clippy, and tests on PRs and main.
  (#11)
• README: Arch Linux AUR package information.
  (#8)

Changed

• Releases are now cut by merging a version-bump PR: the release workflow is
  dispatched automatically and publishes to crates.io (new) as well as
  Homebrew, so cargo install dnsglobe stays current with each release.
