Other

• Added linux x64 release (very experimental and untested) (#122)

Full Changelog: v1.3.3...v1.3.4

Version 1.3.3

• Added milliseconds to full timestamp (#118)
• Added average response time to graph mode
• Changed text on user prompt to make it clearer when PowerPing is exiting
• Fixed address not being found when entered as first argument

Version 1.3.2

• Changed default icmp data/message to be random characters
• Added message to explain why user input is required by default
• User input prompt will be disabled when output is being redirected
• Fixed exception being fixed when trying to set the console cursor to be visible when output is redirected (#116)
• Fixed errors with timestamp arguments
• Fixed inconsistency with RequireInput messages being shown
• Fixed scan and graph command
• Refactored core lookup and ping code

Version 1.3.1

New features/arguments

• New and improved graph mode (Timeouts displayed better, automatic graph axis scaling and clearer bar drawing)
• Reworked No input (/ni or /noinput) and added Require input (/ri or /requireinput)
  (These commands still function the same as noinput always has; using it in a command will mean that command does not require input once it has finished . What's changed is these commands now persistent accross runs of PowerPing. So if you use noinput once you will no longer be prompted for input next time PowerPing is run even if you don't include /noinput. The same applies in reverse to /requireinput which is still the default behaviour for PowerPing)
• Added Full timestamp argument (/fts or /fulltimestamp), similar to --timestamp but adds full local time and date
• Added 'utc' option for /fulltimestamp and /timestamp commands (/timestamp utc or /fulltimestamp utc in order to use) to display any timestamps in UTC
• Added version check to --version and ```--help`` commands
• Added alternate themes for --symbols command (use /sym 0 or 1 to select alternate themes)
• Added option to listen to specific address in --listen command (Use /listen 127.0.0.1 to specify address)
• If left without a specific address /listen command will now listen to all local adapter addresses by default

Tweaks

• Added more info to raw socket creation errors messages
• Improved address finding and arguments parsing
• Improved build and testing processes

• Reworded and redefined packet sub names and colours schemes

Under the hood:

• Big improvements to packet recieve logic (@jdpurcell)
• Better handling of error packets (@jdpurcell)
• Added sessionID and sequence numbers to packets for better identification of packets (@jdpurcell)
• Results overflow checks
• Cleaned up comments
• Normal pings and Flood commands will now start in a new thread to improve responsiveness
• Complete refactor of display code
