+) and an optional no.
Supressing some output is useful when comparing queries that are expected to be the same.
For example since ttl keeps changing and stats includes the current time,
including them will result in differences which are not significant.
Simularly outputting version identification can be supressed using +nocmd

Some of these set or reset flag bits in the query header
keywords are preceded by a plus (+).
keywords which set or reset an option and may be preceded by no.
keywords which assign values to options (like the timeout interval), have the form keyword=value.

-f file, specifying multiple queries on the command line is permited, each can be supplied with its own set of flags, options and query options.
Each query argument represents an individual query in the command-line syntax, consisting of any of the standard options and flags, the name to be looked up, an optional query type and class and any query options applied to that query.
Global query options, applied to all queries,
precede the first hostname, class, type, options, flags, and query options
can be overridden by a query-specific set of query options. For example:
dig +qr www.isc.org any -x 127.0.0.1 isc.org ns +noqr
+qr is applied, so the initial query it made for each lookup. +noqr not output the initial query when it
looks up isc.org.IDN_DISABLE environment variable.
