Re: Nmap GUI

[Cándido Rodríguez Montes <kan () sugus eii us es>]

Hi all,
I'm a Java coder since 6 years ago and I think Java is not the best 
option for a Nmap GUI. If you have all lines of code of nmap team in 
C/C++, you won't take advantage of it. In Java, you could only execute 
nmap commands.
I think the new Nmap GUI could be coded in C/C++ with GTK+ library. 
Another excellent program, ethereal, is coded in C with GTK+ and you can 
install in the next systems: MacOSX, BeOS, Linux, *BSD, UNIX, Windows, 
etc. Not only Java is portable! :D

Cheers,

Candido Rodriguez
