Stonie,

nmap_kiosk is simply a program to generate the hotkey input to automatically
cycle the display between the number of loops. It does not rewrite the
appearance of the NMAP program. That is, if you had a series of 8 loops loaded 
into
NMAP, the display will show a loop for a specified time, then advance to the 
next loop.

I wrote that for a department that had a display in the lobby of their building.
