for convenience when you don't need/want a full resource file, you just
want to run something quick
example usage:
# say you have a saved config ready to go on load
./msfconsole -s 'exploit -j'
# you can run multiple commands too
./msfconsole -s 'set ConsoleLogging true\nshow options'
Often in HTTP modules, people are forced to to use 'data' instead
of 'vars_get' or 'vars_post', because the parameters (especially
the names) are URI-encoded, and the application actually may not
recognize the names/values. The new 'encode_params' option allows
that feature to be disabled. However, to make sure we're not
changing existing HTTP modules' behaviors, 'encode_params' is
still true by default (which is the original behavior we've always
been using).
fs.rb was originally attempting to call the "close" method on a
string holding the temporary path to the file being editted.
Replaced with ::File.delete(temp_path).
The 'unless' statement expects there's always a value for USERNAME
and PASSWORD. We might as well just set '' as the default value
to avoid the NoMethodError mistake. Related to bug #7140.
utctl shouldn't check for stdapi_ui_disable_mouse or disable_keyboard
since neither exist.
Removed the check, tested both enable and disable on mouse and keyboard,
uictl seems to work as advertised now.

Same semantics as Ruby stdlib File.open - if you give it a block, yields
a new File object and closes it after the block, otherwise same as
File.new.
[FixRM #6481]
This solves the looping problem. Since the TCP connection wouldn't
necessarily close, we couldn't count on a 0-length recv, and the
connection was timing out. Changed it so send_tcp can take a block, in
which we do parsing. AXFR responses are sandwiched between SOA answers,
so when the second one is reached, the transfer is done.
This is also cleaner for existing code that uses send_tcp, since if no
block is passed, it just returns the first response and tears down the
connection, just like it used to.
This required some changes to send_tcp: it now loops, reading as many
length-prefixed DNS responses as are available before the connection
closes. This shouldn't affect other uses of the function, since most
questions only have one response in answer.
AXFR support in net-dns is broken. This fixes it, and makes the
requisite modifications to enum_dns module. Basic problem is that AXFR
responses consist of a chain of DNS replies, not a single reply with
multiple answers. Previously, only the first of these replies, the SOA
record, was returned. Also added some exception handling to avoid
problems like #483.
