SYNOPSIS

treso::resolve ?-option ...? what ?-option ...?
treso::resolvers
treso::running
treso::cancel runId
DESCRIPTION
This extension uses the system's resolver to resolve
names to addresses or addresses to names. When resolving
addresses to names, the first address found is returned
unless one of the return options is given.
A single return option returns the option's value.
More than one return option or the -all return
option will return a dict of option/value pairs.
Lookups are performed in the inet domain by default.
RESOLVERS
The resolvers command returns a list of available resolvers
that may be passed as parameters to the -resolver option of
the resolve command. At minimum, four resolvers are available:
none Returns a result based on the input and options.

Possibly useful for testing.
Nonblocking.

and calls the callback from the event handler.
