1) I wrote a function that formats output from scripts in a consistent way. Although we haven't really come to a concensus on how it should look yet, it's easy to change when we do.
2) New script: smb-enum-groups.nse. Enumerate the local groups on a system and their membership.
line, not "\n\n", in the SMB and MSRPC scripts and modules. There are newer
versions of these files pending review, so this is just a quick measure to let
me use first paragraphs as summaries rather than first sentences.
I made every script follow a standard form: it starts with the id, followed by
the description. The description is contained in [[ ]] delimiters. The
description is in the global description variable, not in a LuaDoc comment.
Other LuaDoc information such as @args and @usage follows the description in a
comment.
The first paragraph of each description is a a short summary of what the script

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:
