12 Nmapfe (also known as xnmap) is a convenient X Window front end for the
13 Nmap Security Scanner. Most of the options correspond directly to Nmap
14 options, which are described in detail in the Nmap man page. We recom‐
15 mend you read that first. There is also limited help available via the
16 NmapFE "Help" menu.

38 Source is provided to this software because we believe users have a
40 right to know exactly what a program is going to do before they run it.
41 This also allows you to audit the software for security holes (none
42 have been found so far).
43 Source code also allows you to port nmapfe to new platforms, fix bugs,
45 and add new features. You are highly encouraged to send your changes
46 to Fyodor for possible incorporation into the main Nmap distribution.
47 By sending these changes to Fyodor or nmap-hackers, it is assumed that
