A fellow has offered a new program to GNU, an enhanced ping implemented
in Python. I can't see that it makes any sense to think about adding
this to GNU per se, but I thought you might be interested in the
additional features he claims it has, and consider them for GNU ping:
http://www.nongnu.org/aping
My application has some things in common with the ping program, but the
main differences are: APing can make four type of ICMP probes, not just
echo request, it has a multithreading system, so every time when you
press enter and APing is running shows information about time elapsed,
target, min, max average rtt ...
Best,
Karl
