My favorite Macports programs

Macports is software that allows you to easily install open source *nix software on your Macintosh, easily. After having difficulty finding lists of others favorite, or "best" Macports, I thought I'd start my own.

nmap - network mapping and discovery tool

hping3 - ping tool, but with custom packets, and can ping "ports"

Dopewars - addictive drug dealing game

Fortune - Unix fortune cookie reader

aircrack-ng - Wireless network security audit tool

Lynx - text only web browser

iterm2 - improved OSX terminal

PuTTy - awesome SSH, telnet, and serial terminal client

wget - http download tool
