netutil

netutil is a simple tool for casual ComputerCraft users to execute network based commands easily. It currently only supports Wireless Modems, but Wired Modem support is planned. At the moment in can manage ports and send standard Rednet messages through basic commands.

It is recommended you place 'netutil' in the root ('/'), or your own directory/folder for programs. (e.g. 'mv netutil /myprograms/netutil')

Sorry if it's a bit buggy, it's my first attempt at a ComputerCraft program.

Commands:

netutil commands:
 
- port             View the selected port's status

You forgot to post the code. Please edit your post to include it or we will have to lock the topic.

Even without code, it already looks promising.
Basically, the only thing this allows you to do is to send messages?

It's my first program, and not entirely done at that. It lets people who aren't lua-savvy work with their networks by effectively turning most of the Modem and Rednet APIs into simple commands instead. I'm adding better rednet support and support to let you look at your wired connections at the moment. I'm sorry if my first attempt isn't an OS, File Explorer, FTP Client or some Archive utility.

Nobody expects from you that your first program is an OS :P/> ComputerCraft was made for learning after all, I guess.

Don't be. All of those things are much too advanced for a first attempt: Many people try to start out with an OS, but it doesn't work well at all. In my experience, writing APIs is much better for learning.
