Nmap, tty and Perl

[Noam Rathaus]

Gabor,

I did - but these two packages appear to be left-ware, they haven't
been updated it quite a while.

Nmap-Scanner = October 29, 2006
Nmap-Parser =  	07 Nov 2008

The first appears much more dead then the second one, which is a shame
as the first one is more comprehensive than the second one.
