Hi everyone! I use nmap on windows and linux both, command-line only on both (as I don't use GUI on linux and nmapfe on windows is not up to the task, really). In my opinion, the focus of the GUi should be towards automating some tasks, parsing results and enabling the user to compare results, as opposed to giving an exhaustive list of all the options. The gui could provide a way to make and save scripts for automating certain tasks, besides coming with it's own pre-made scripts. Scan results could be shown in a variety of ways, for visual and statistical analysis. Scan results could be saved so that we could have a sort of memory: next time I scanned something, I could look up the previous results and compare them. A gui should be able to give something extra to the user by the fact that it has the whole screen to play with and the ability to deliver information in metaphors (a graphical network "tree", for example), which is something that the command-line is not up to. The gui should not be just a command-line substitute, it ends up being a bit pointless as it can never be as fast as typing :p Most of this stuff has probably been said already, sorry if I'm repeating stuff, just my 2 cents :) shana gone crazy, back soon, leave message _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev
