RIPE Whois Lookup

This is a simple Albert Launcher Extension for network staff.

• general IP/ASN Lookup (against RIPE Stats API)
• lists more/less specific prefixes
• lists related Whois objects and generates classic whois output
• reverse DNS lookups
• Private resources are checked locally to save API requests.
• Local overrides for custom Links, Prefixes or ASNs
