 # Notes
 
 - As default, `httpx` probe with **HTTPS** scheme and fall-back to **HTTP** only if **HTTPS** is not reachable.
+- Burp Suite XML exports can be used as input with `-l burp-export.xml -im burp`
 - The `-no-fallback` flag can be used to probe and display both **HTTP** and **HTTPS** result.
 - Custom scheme for ports can be defined, for example `-ports http:443,http:80,https:8443`
 - Custom resolver supports multiple protocol (**doh|tcp|udp**) in form of `protocol:resolver:port` (e.g. `udp:127.0.0.1:53`)
