data has no method 'indexOf' (Missing conversion .toString() in stdout.on("data" ..) ?

[krauskopf]

In index.js at line 76: When subscribing to stdin, shouldn't the data argument be converted to a string before using the method indexOf()?

I'm receiving:

TypeError: Object <?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet href="file:///usr/bin/../share/nmap/nmap.xsl" type="text/xsl"?>

I fixed the issue by adding:

data = data.toString();

to result in:

 this.child.stdout.on("data", function (data) {
                data = data.toString();
                if (data.indexOf("percent") > -1) {
                    console.log(data.toString());
                }
                else {
                    _this.rawData += data;
                }
            });

I'm using Node.js v0.10.35

Thanks for the heads up. I'll check this out and implement the fix.

Appologies for the insane delay. It's been a dev heavy year. I'm not seeing an error here. Is this still an issue?
