Remove duplicate indexterms. Some of them were just too close together.
Some of
them were "see also" entries; I didn't realize that
<indexterm><primary>a</primary></indexterm>
<indexterm><primary>a</primary><seealso>b</seealso></indexterm>
would create two entries for "a" on that page. There were also a few
instances
where I had a <primary> definition in an <indexterm class="endofrange"> tag.

Crop out the titles of packet header diagrams.
book-4.diff:
Miscellaneous index and other fixes.
book-5.diff:
Run indexterms into the same line when they appear in a paragraph. The way I
was doing it before (with indexterms on separate lines) caused an extra space
to be inserted. This was especially visible in the OS detection chapter where
there were long strings of indexterms naming response tests.
book-6.diff:
Do some more cleanup. nmap-intro said it covered export control but it
didn't,
so I removed the mention of it. I thought that -ff made smaller fragments,
but
it makes bigger fragments, so an index entry has been amended. There was a
typo
<optino>; somehow that didn't give an error.
* Merge the "backdoor" category into "malware"
* Add "auth" for authentication credential determination
* Rename "vulnerability" to "vuln"

comments about existing text. I think the complicated and changing
nature of NSE had made it hard to write about it in a concise and easy
to understand way.

(exchange()). 16 scripts were updated to use this library. [Kris]
I have *not* been able to test all of these scripts; however, I have
reviewed them and they should all work properly. I would really like
some more testing, though :)
This commit includes scripting.xml documentation.
of scripts chosen from when using -sC (but it's still just another category
and so can be chosen with --script like any other).
On top of updating the docs with information about this new category, I've
also updated sections to emphasize that the "default" category, -sC and -A
are considered intrusive and should not be run against target networks
without permission.
The new list is very similar to the previous "safe,intrusive" list:
Added: finger, ircServerInfo, RealVNC_auth_bypass
Removed: HTTPpasswd
Here are the 21 scripts in this new category:
anonFTP
dns-test-open-recursion
finger
ftpbounce
HTTPAuth
HTTP_open_proxy
ircServerInfo
MSSQLm
MySQLinfo
nbstat
RealVNC_auth_bypass
