The description of IO Ninja Programmable Terminal/Sniffer - Play With New Friends

IO Ninja is an all-in-one scriptable terminal, sniffer and monitor. It's aimed at system administrators, network security experts and developers of communication software. IO Ninja is free for non-commercial usage. Out-of-the-box IO Ninja provides: * Serial terminal * TCP terminal (client/server) * UDP terminal (client/server; UDP broadcast support) * SSH terminal * TCP proxy (man-in-the-middle-style monitoring) * Windows named pipe terminal (client/server) * Serial monitor * Network sniffer * Windows named pipe monitor The latest version of IO Ninja has excellent support for binary data -- both editing binary packets before sending as well as displaying both incoming and outgouing (RX/TX) binary data in a communication log: * Text editor with support for escape sequences (\n, \xFF, \u2661 etc) * Modern hex editor with support for all UTF encodings * Template packet editor -- define a packet structure in C-language and then edit the fields with property grid * Binary data is interleaved with informational textual messages thus providing a clean single-sheet log * Display binary data as hex-view or plain text, merge incoming packets together, etc * Multiple modes of binary data copy (copy-as-text, copy-as-hex, copy-as-C-array, save-as-file etc) IO Ninja features Session Linking which turns it to a universal redirector. Create two sessions (e.g. Serial and TCP), configure them and then link them together. All the data will be passed-through from one end to another and vice versa. IO Ninja is programmable with Jancy language and it turns IO Ninja into a universal IO debugger. With scripting you can: * Modify any standard session * Write custom protocol analyzers and syntax highlighters * Write testing utilities (e.g. wait for incoming packets, analyze, send something in return) IO Ninja has an IDE to assist you in exploring and making use of IO Ninja scripting.
