Are you sure, you can enter arabic domainnames nt he console?  :-D

I can not even copy/past it.

However it would be very usefull if "dig" could outpout the inverse too,
I mean if I use "dig -x a.b.c.d" and Dig woud not onle respond with  the
"xn--mgbaajmr6mmaps.xn--ygb8b" but also in a second line the  translated
domainname.  Somehing like

----[command 'dig +idn -x 192.168.0.200' ]------------------------------
