You can also set the query type with nslookup, like

$ nslookup -q=aaaa www.kame.net
Server:         127.0.0.1
Address:        127.0.0.1#53

Non-authoritative answer:
www.kame.net    has AAAA address 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085

Authoritative answers can be found from:
kame.net        nameserver = ns1.itojun.org.
kame.net        nameserver = orange.kame.net.
ns1.itojun.org  internet address = 202.232.15.92
ns1.itojun.org  has AAAA address 2001:240:501:0:206:29ff:fe8f:b201
ns1.itojun.org  has AAAA address 2001:240:501:1:2ae:d0ff:fe00:3b
ns1.itojun.org  has AAAA address 2001:240:501:2:240:26ff:fec0:ae56
orange.kame.net internet address = 203.178.141.194
orange.kame.net has AAAA address 2001:200:0:8002:203:47ff:fea5:3085


...but from what I've heard, `host` is the preferred way to look up
IPs, instead of nslookup.
