Hi Jah.  Thanks for the feedback and your great points.

I think so too!

Yeah, that was a tile of this image:

http://insecure.org/images/bg/purple.gif

The problem is that I think it made text above it harder to read.  If
someone wants to create or suggest a more subtle image to tile on
instead, I'd welcome that.  It should probably be near the #2A0D45
purple color so section bars and the like don't need to be changed to
match.

It was in nmap-exp, but we move things out of there when they are
incorporated into Nmap, the web site, the build system, etc.  It is
just a temporary home.  Now NSEDoc is in /nmap-dev/nsedoc.  That
/nmap-dev directory requires an Nmap SVN account for read access.
I'll make you one and send it.  If enough people want access to the
nsedoc source (which is generally only useful if you want to build
your own html tree like the one at http://nmap.org/nsedoc/), then I'll
try to find a more public place to put it.  Keep in mind that the
output is customized for Nmap.org (e.g. contains custom SSI
directives), the build process may make assumptions that the
filesystem paths are the same as on the nmap.org web server, etc.

Cheers,
