eznet-cli: A command line application with netstat shortcuts

Have you ever needed to remember how to check what process is on a port and forgotten how to do it? There are loads of netstat commands that can be tricky to remember. This is a work in progress command line application to give direct shortcuts to those netstat operations.

Options

-v, --version

Show application version.

-h, --help

Show help menu.

-c PORT, --check-port=PORT

Get the name and process ID of the process running on a given port

-p PNAME, --find-process=PNAME

Find the port and ID of a process by name

-k PORT, --kill-port=PORT

Check the process running on a given port with the option to kill it if you'd like.

TODO

• Add the ability to kill process on port
• Add the ability to search for process by name
• Maybe look into other cli operations? (getting IP?)
• Come up with other useful stuff
• Write up contributors guide
• Decide how to do documentation (probably Github wiki?)
• Write man page (figure out how to do that lol)
• Figure out distribution/release
• Set up CI (probably Travis)

Contributing

I don't know that I'm ready for contributors yet because I don't have a good contributors guide. I do plan to eventually open this up to contributors. If you have any ideas for future operations, please feel free to open an issue, I am happy to discuss ideas!
