[orbit-user] Looking at the source code for original application

ping implementation is in C?

The ping application used in the tutorial is the default executable that
comes with the OS (Debian Linux in this case). The source code for ping
should be available as part of the iputils and I suggest looking for either
the source tarball or the source package.
