--- Common communication functions for network discovery tasks like
-- banner grabbing and data exchange.
--
-- The functions in this module return values appropriate for use with
-- exception handling via nmap.new_try
.
--
-- These functions may be passed a table of options, but it's not required. The
-- keys for the options table are "bytes"
, "lines"
,
-- "proto"
, and "timeout"
. "bytes"
sets
-- a minimum number of bytes to read. "lines"
does the same for
-- lines. "proto"
sets the protocol to communicate with,
-- defaulting to "tcp"
if not provided. "timeout"
-- sets the socket timeout (see the socket function set_timeout
-- for details).
--
-- If both "bytes"
and "lines"
are provided,
-- "lines"
takes precedence. If neither are given, the functions
-- read as many bytes as possible.
