stdnse.print_debug accepts a format string and arguments, making
string.format redundant in calls of this form:
stdnse.print_debug(1, string.format("%s: error", SCRIPT_NAME))
stdnse.print_debug(("length %d"):format(#tab))
These can be rewritten as:
stdnse.print_debug(1, "%s: error", SCRIPT_NAME)
stdnse.print_debug("length %d", #tab)
Mostly found with:
for i in nselib/*.lua scripts/*.nse; do
echo $(perl -lne 'BEGIN{$a=$p=0}next unless $_;/^(\s*)/;' \
-e '$l=length$1;next if$l==$p;$a+=(abs($l-$p)-$a)/$.;' \
-e '$p=$l;END{print$a}' $i) $i
done | sort -nr
And indented with: https://gist.github.com/bonsaiviking/8845871
whois-ip.nse was particularly mangled (probably my fault due to using
vim's built-in indentation script, but it could be structured better)
This is the default and can be omitted. Seeing as the value of this
argument was "hardmatched" in 100% of cases, we're better off pretending
the parameter doesn't exist.
