I'm wanting to add something like this.

Besides length, what would you think would be a good way to sort suggestions here?

good suggestion

Currently, it just streams out whichever whois servers respond first. Sorting is a good improvement!

Agreed. I’d provide two lists both sorted. First a list of taken then a list of available.

I wonder if it'll be good to go from a line-by-line print to an actual TUI. That'd make sorting + dynamically inserting new domains make sense

Great tool! Prior me is sad this didn’t exist!

I’d be fine with a live summary status updating showing # available and # taken. Hitting ctrl+c resulting in printing the lists as above.

Also perhaps a —timeout flag, or similar as I may only want to wait 5 minutes / length of time it takes to steep tea for answers.

i'd rather be able to pipe the results to a domains.txt file to be honest.
