I'm sure I'm missing something, but can't nmap do all of this?
I'm actually looking at doing a wrapper around NMap. Personally I'm fine with "Just use NMap" as a solution, but I need something that's usable by people who know only a little about Linux and aren't super comfortable in the command line. So I want to do stuff like enumerating the interfaces and just letting them pick one to scan instead of having to specify a network. I'll probably work in a really basic UI using Dialog or something as well.
I usually have some specific goals I'd like to add, which is why this would be the barebones scaffolding.
That aside, I don't like the output from nmap ๐
Fair points.
