Script path lookup order

[Hani Benhabiles <kroosec () gmail com>]

Hi list,

I have noticed that when using --script=scriptname, the script is looked 
for in the Nmap scripts directory first, before looking in the current 
working directory afterward.

Even using --script=./scriptname keeps the same order of path lookup and 
we have to provide the full path to the script in the current directory 
in order to run it.

So, is there any logic behind this ? I believe that searching for the 
script in the current directory first is more logical for different 
needs (e.g testing a new version of a script.).

Cheers,
Hani.
