Umm, how about simply using DiG? It does what you want in a single command
line, and its all text output makes it simple to parse - several tools
(dlint from www.domtools.com, for eg.) use dig.

Dig is available with the BIND distribution.

I can resort to using Expect.pm to script it, but
I'd rather not...I was hoping there was something
that would work in a single command line.

Filipe suggested and sent me 'dnscmd.exe', but
that doesn't do it...it's intended for
administering MS DNS servers, not necessarily
performing zone transfers on arbitrary DNS
servers.

I asked the question, looking for something that
would be useful to consultants and admins as
well...by making it easily scriptable, it's easier
(and hopefully more likely) to use...
