It looks nice and thanks for your contribution, but I would like to keep the number of "non-core" features in fping to a minimum. It should be possible to write a command-line tool that does the UI and calls fping for the measurements.

I believe crafting a tool solely invoking fping isn't as straightforward, as it needs to do more than just display the results. It should run continuously and provide real-time status updates.

One potential solution could involve utilizing a JSON output from fping. This way, the tool could efficiently parse the structured data, enhancing the ease of real-time status monitoring.

Alternatively, another approach could be implementing the entire output through an interface. This approach opens up the possibility of creating plugins for various graphical user interfaces, such as a Qt GUI, providing greater flexibility and customization options.
