Re: [NSE] Script Idea: nmap last run

[Vikas Singhal <vikas.programmer () gmail com>]

Ohok.. I think nmap will throw an error anyways if -sT / -sS both are
specified.

About your comment:
> You would then have to remember to specify it or set it up as an alias which
I think you can already do with -oA

Script scan is common and -oA is not. If -sC was specified nmap will tell
us that the output was saved in a FILE. Alias is difficult as Toni pointed
out that there is no default filename generation.

Or may be.. Option 3: if we could just add -oA and it generated the file
with default naming convention. This way we are restricting default saving
and still able to save output without much hassels. That being said, this
is not what I wanted in first place though. :(

Or.. we can do something like this to save last output..
