I am confused, maybe because I'm missing something very fundamental here. I 
only user the GUI to select the plugins. If there were some documentation as 
to the layout of .nessusrc (maybe even some embedded comments), I would feel 
comfortable in editing the the .nessusrc file directly with my favorite 
editor (emacs). Would not this be a simpler approach than a custom client 
editor which I think is being proposed? Please tell me what point I am 
missing here.

Regads,

Dave.
