Just fyi, looks like the shortened command defaults has a bug based on the docs @ https://pypi.org/project/service-ping-sping/

(i.e. # HTTP monitoring with interactive UI sping google.com )

  sping johnqdeveloper.com     
  Usage: sping [OPTIONS] URL
  Try 'sping --help' for help.

Thank you for reporting this!

Would you mind telling me what environment you found this behavior in, and how you installed the app?

I've been testing in ubuntu containers doing:

    pip3 install service-ping-sping --break-system-packages

Thank you so much!!

*EDIT:*

I think this is to do with me not being specific about what version of typer I depend upon... working on it now!

This is now fixed in 0.2.11. Thanks @johnQdeveloper
