NAME

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

VERSION

       2.0.9

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.

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.
