Easy syntax:

PortCheck [-t] [-i] <hostname(s)> <port(s)>

Examples:

PortCheck -i               # interactive (ask for input)
PortCheck MyServer 80      # single check
PortCheck -t MyServer 443  # continuous

More complex syntax:

PortCheck [-t] [-i] [-w:<pause in s>] [-st] [-nc] [-oo] [-nl] [-tc]
          [-rcf:<batch file when closed>] [-rcc:<closed count>] [-rco] [-rch]
          [-rof:<batch file when open>] [-roc:<open count>] [-roo] [-roh]
          [-replaceopentext:<text when open>] [-replaceclosedtext:<text when closed>]
          <hostname(s)> <port(s)> [<timeout in ms>] [<filename of logfile>] [<description>]

hostname(s)    One or more hostnames, separated by comma (no blanks)
port(s)        One or more TCP port numbers (separated by comma), a port
range          <startport>-<endport> or all wellknown ports 'knownports' or 'kp'
timeout        Can be 100-1000 (default: 1000ms)
filename       Logs everything to a specified file, including date and time
description    Your own description for the specified port

-t    Check the specified ports continuous
-w    Wait some time between checks (this is not the timeout)
-st   Show date and time in every line
-nc   No color: use default color instead of green and red
-oo   Only open: show only open ports
-nl   No lines: don't add separators
-tc   Toggle colors: swap green and red (port opened = alarm)
-bp   Beep: send acoustical signal in case of alarm (only with -t)

Examples:

PortCheck www.bing.com 80
PortCheck -t www.bing.com 80
PortCheck oracle-server1 1521 500 c:\temp\logfile.txt oracle
