Explain what it means that Wireshark can now open PCAP files (as MIME files).

The title "New File Format Support" containing a list that included PCAP and

explain what it means.

PCAP) in this mode specify "MIME Files Format" as the file's format in the
Open File dialog.
New files that Wireshark can open in this mode include:
