Deprecating scripts

Hello,

A few revisions ago, I removed pwdump.nse because psexec.nse has the
same functionality and more.

The problem is, I've had quite a few emails asking me why
--script=pwdump.nse doesn't work.

I'd like to get some direction on what to do with this. I'm thinking of
re-adding pwdump.nse, but making it simply print out "This script is
deprecated; please run [...] instead.

Any thoughts? Should we consider any other means of deprecating scripts?

Ron
