Re: Call for testers: Nping 0.1BETA1 Released.

Hi Jason,

Nping behaves in a slightly different way than Nmap. If you look at the
man page you'll see that there are 7 levels of verbosity. However, the
initial level is level 4 so if you specify -vN where N<4 you are
actually telling Nping to display less information. Here is a quick ref
guide:

Level 0: No output
Level 1: Fatal error messages
Level 2: Warnings and recoverable errors
Level 3: Normal but does not display sent/recv packets, just stats, etc.
Level 4: Display sent/recv packets and stats.
Level 5: Display detailed packet info.
Level 6: Display very detailed packet info.

So to sum up: every instance of -v increments verbosity level by one
(starting from level 4). -vN sets verbosity level N.

Luis.
