+ Full screen ncurses traceroute tool
+
+ mtr combines the functionality of the 'traceroute' and
+ 'ping' programs in a asingle network diagnostic tool.
+
+ As mtr starts, it investigates the network connection
+ between the host mtr runs on and a user-specified
+ destination host. After it determines the address of each
+ network hop between the machines, it sends a sequence ICMP
+ ECHO requests to each one to determine the quality of the
+ link to each machine. As it does this, it prints running
+ statistics about each machine.
