Description

       The  type99script  will  convert  DNS  TXT strings to a binary equivalent suitable for use in a BIND zone
       file.  Since use of DNS type SPF (99) was removed in RFC  7208,  this  script  should  be  of  historical
       interest only.

Name

       type99 - Python Type TXT to Type 99/SPF conversion script

Usage

       The type99 script is called from the command line as follows:

       python type99 "v=spf1 -all" {Note: Use your desired SPF record instead.}

       \# 12 0b763d73706631202d616c6c {This is the correct result for "v=spf1 -all"}

       or

       python type99 - {File name}

       The  input file format is a standard BIND Zone file.  The type99 script will add a Type99 record for each
       TXT record found in the file.
