Package: GINK Interface Nettool Kit
System name: gnugink
Type: GNU

Description:
My project is akind of net tool box under GNU/Linux.

It\'s mainly a user graphic interface to system commands like ping, nmap, 
finger, traceroute, tcpdump, netstat, whois, lookup, arp tools, etc...

The main goal is to facilitate the use of them and mainly to give easier use of 
one command from the result of another one.

The graphic interface is in Gnome/Gtk+ for a best integration in a Gnome 
environment.

The look and functionalities of this software looks like an equivalent under 
MAC OS X.

A setting part will give the availibility to use these net tools with a 
configuration of options as richer as their equivalent command line.

The result of each command is colorized in some way for better visibility and 
interpretation.

The user can right click on a selected part of a tool result to pop up a 
context mouse menu. In this context menu he can launch another tool with the 
selected part as entry.

In the installation the software will try to find needed commands. The 
functionalities of not founded commands will be disabled (except if the user 
change settings, for command path for example).

A working outline exists with some tools like finger, ping, traceroute, nmap, 
netstat, tcpdump. Context mouse menu, settings and other tools are not 
implemented yet.

You can download this outline at

Other Software Required:
The software is written with Perl and Glade for now (probably in C later).
To use it you need some of the system commands of the description (You don\'t 
have to use all of them).
