Thanks for replying, but I'm not sure this is what I want:

1) I'm trying not to set any domain, just use local simple
(unqualified) names.

2) My understanding of dnsmasq is that it acts as a DNS server (among
other things) so there should be no need to run it on the client side
as long as the client has a resolver, which they basically all do.

Furthermore, although the man page does talk about lots of command-line 
options I expect these can all be handled via the config file, which is
what I'm trying to do.

Thanks again.
