 I've cleaned up this patch (attached).  Rather than output the very
 long host time line like before, the line now looks like:

 Scanned at 2008-05-08 01:57:19 UTC for 1s

 Also, a verbosity level of 2 or greater is now required.  The
 information is always reported in the XML output.


I like this idea, especially with the shorter line.  However there are
a couple of things I noticed:

1) Windows doesn't seem to support the %T conversion; doing %H:%M:%S
works fine

Thanks for catching this; good to know.


2) How about printing the message if o.verbose > 1 || o.debugging ?

I considered the same thing but I didn't want to add to -d being a more
verbose version of verbose -- I suppose the information may be useful
for whatever people use -d for but I thought that just verbose would be
fine.

I always run with -v and -d but rarely -vv so you're probably right
that the change is appropriate.


I've attached a patch including these changes.

Thanks,

Looks good, thanks for looking at (and fixing up) the patch.
