22:10:42 d33tah $ bonsaiviking: could you sketch how you'd like to see execution flow documented? perhaps i could pitch in a b it 22:11:16 bonsaiviking $ Probably a mention of main.cc vs nmap.cc 22:11:32 bonsaiviking $ Link out to the book chapter on Phases of an Nmap Scan for the main loop 22:12:19 bonsaiviking $ Like when I want to trace a problem, I always start at the main loop (can't remember if it has its own function in nmap.cc?) 22:12:48 bonsaiviking $ then you need to know that forward lookups are done in the nexthost function, in refresh_hostbatch 22:13:59 bonsaiviking $ Maybe it should be a series of snapshots of "these are the functions called to do X" where X is a phase of Nmap or something smaller.
