- | And with this one is already close to having a general network service management tool, also listing the DNS-SD services which are not related to printing with buttons to their web interfaces (imaging the user can open the web interface of his router with a simple mouse click). This would be the "user-friendly" avahi-discover then, showing the services in a user-friendly order an presentation. | + | And with this one is already close to having a general network service management tool, also listing the DNS-SD services which are not related to printing with buttons to their web interfaces (imagine the user can open the web interface of his router with a simple mouse click).
