-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Extending Tomas' idea a little bit more, I gather an "NML Output Templating" or a general Templating system for each output mode would be lovely, yet probably over- complicated... maybe just a "custom output mode" that could read a template.tpl file, and write the output for each host based on that template...?
actually this is exactly the reason why Nmap supports XML output. Using XML style sheets you can merge the information from the output XML into any template system you want to use (think XSL). Or to come back to Tomas' problem, I think it is a more elegant solution to integrate Nmap's XML output with other namespaces than extending Nmap's own XML vocabulary. There already exist several quasi standards to deal with projects (e.g. DOAP [1]) which are probably more suitable for practical use than anything the Nmap community could cook up in a pinch. just my 2 cents cheers, Diman [1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DOAP _______________________________________________ Sent through the nmap-dev mailing list http://cgi.insecure.org/mailman/listinfo/nmap-dev Archived at http://SecLists.Org
