Hi Jacek.  Yeah, I think that could be valuable for the user's guide tricks
section.  But with Ncat you could probably make the line even simpler.  In
addition, you'd probably also want to show how to do a more generic web
server using the new Lua scripting functionality.

That's a good one too.

Yes!  And you're welcome to add either or both.  The Ncat guide could use
more documentation of the new Lua features too.  I just realized that the
Ncat Guide source code is in the web tree, where relatively few people have
access to it.  So I've moved it to the main Nmap repo in
nmap/ncat/docs/ncatguide.xml so everyone can read it and all the committers
can make changes.

Cheers,
Fyodor
