Common Patterns

Run with Return key — all host/URL input fields trigger the tool when you press Return, no need to click the button.

Cancel — the action button turns into a red Cancel button while any operation is running.

Export — tools with text output (WHOIS, DNS) include an export button (↑) to save to a file.

History — host/URL fields show a clock icon (↺) when recent inputs are available. Click to pick from history.
