@vzamanillo thank you for working on this, few suggestions -

• enable -tl option when -td option is used implicitly.
• respect -no-color option to disable colors when -td is used.

By the way, I chose monokai as the default style to show the content of the template, if you think it's not the right one or you prefer another one, we have time to change it, you can try em here Chroma Playground

I have not thought about the option of being able to change it by command line, but it can also be done.

./nuclei -id tls-version -silent -td

Template: /Users/geekboy/nuclei-templates/ssl/tls-version.yaml

id: tls-version

info:
  name: TLS Version
  author: pdteam
  severity: info
  tags: ssl

ssl:
  - address: "{{Host}}:{{Port}}"

    extractors:
      - type: json
        json:
          - ".tls_version"

The -td flag could also accept an optional int parameter to only show a specific number of lines in case you want to look up the descriptions of multiple templates (as shown in the first screenshot in the ticket).

Yep, forgot that.

You mean using an optional integer value of td or a new one in combination with td,? e.g: nl (number of lines)

[vzamanillo]

I see, there is no optional value flags for goflags

projectdiscovery/goflags#11

[forgedhallpass]

@vzamanillo yes, you are right, I forgot that it wasn't yet implemented.

In this case you can either:

1. leave it as-is and post a comment in the goflags ticket with the follow-up work
2. require a number from start where anything <= 0 would mean "show the whole content", otherwise the parameter should indicate the desired amount of template lines

[vzamanillo]

@forgedhallpass I am going to investigate how to add the optional flags, it is the optimal solution.

@vzamanillo, we can adapt the changes once projectdiscovery/goflags#11 is implemented.
