I think I saw the problem. I'll work on it

I didn't understand what you mean.

If you close the tab, you get the child process killed ;-) Umit
controls the nmap process, and if you kill it, you'll end with the
nmap process running in the background. One of the ideas of the Nmap
Wrapper is having full control under nmap process and avoid such
issues.

The bugtracker is better, because I can keep track of bugs, and I see
when a bug is registered on it.
