License (once more) #841

Closed Ricky-Tigg closed 1 week ago

Hello. Although it is hard to imagine nowadays what could motivate a programmer to refrain from presenting his product completely, well here we see that it can indeed exist. Unable to guess what you could possibly be trying to achieve by acting in this way. In any case, it persists, as illustrated below regarding the license; excerpt from the About-section:

github com_sullo_nikto_repository

You can still click on the text in its environment.

Have you tried looking in the licence section?

What do you think you will accomplish with such a suggestion, to try? Wouldn't having had the message in plain text, and what's more, explicit, in an image, have suited you? What else could you possibly need?

The COPYING file contains the license for the code except LibWhisker, which has its own license, as well as db files which have their own. Putting it on the repo is just a convenience and it would be inaccurate to choose one license.
