Comment (by grarpamp):

 Use '*' as VIRTPORT for honeypots, watching portscanners, testing, etc.
 I originally had 'exclude' as a TARGET keyword to indicate 'all but this'
 VIRTPORT range, but it seemed better to define it as a range to remove
 from all other specified VIRTPORTs of that service including from '*'
 itself. Consider it a firewall. 'HSP * exclude' would remove all.
 Same VIRTPORT randomizer... you'd have to treat '*' as always hit, and
 scan through the range style lines to find any hits there. Again, canceled
 by hits in 'exclude' list.
 Perhaps TARGET could also be a tun(4) with 'tun', not sure on that yet.
 My '!^Tor' sentence in OP should be removed but there's no button to edit
 it.
