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.

       -5
           Use the SOCKS5 protocol. (Default)

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

       -psocksport
           Override the default SOCKS port without setting the hostname.
