| Doc Text: |
Previously, when querying a domain with the name length near the allowed limit of 63 characters, and emitting command options to a whois server, the "whois" command failed because both the domain name and command options were given to a function responsible for translating Internationalized Domain Names (IDN) to ASCII. The length of such command was greater than the allowed limit. This update fixes this bug so that only the domain name is now translated after executing the command.
