You can get a status line during a running scan by pressing any key that is not bound to a function (press ? for a list of bindings). Alternatively, you can pass the –stats-every option with a time value. So this: nmap –stats-every 1m would print a detailed (2-line) status every minute.
How to finalize XML output in nmap scan?
Extend Nmap’s signal handlers to finalize XML output if any. Difficult because the SIGINT and SIGSTOP signal handlers should be as small as possible and cannot rely on file handles being in a usable state. Maybe make this part of a different signal handler like SIGUSR1 or something and/or bind that to a ctrl key sequence.
How to extend nmap for last completed host?
Extend –resume to parse Nmap’s XML output for last completed host. Not too difficult. Change Nmap’s XML output stream to clobber the final tags of a well-formed XML file if –append-output or –resume are started. Tricky, but doable. Extend Nmap’s signal handlers to finalize XML output if any.
