<section id="ChIOFileSetSection"><title>File Sets</title>
<para>
When using the "Multiple Files" option while doing a capture,
the capture data is spreaded over several capture files, called a file
set. Ethereal tries to find the files matching the same filename pattern
than the currently loaded file. This will only work, if all the files
of the file set are located in the same directory.
</para>
<para>
As it can become tedious to work with a file set by hand, Ethereal
provides some features in the "File" menu to handle these file sets in
a more convenient way:
</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para>
The <command>List Files</command> dialog box will list the files
Ethereal has recognized as being part of the current file set.
</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>
<command>Next File</command> opens the next file in the file set.
</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>
<command>Previous File</command> opens the previous file in
the file set.
</para></listitem>

</para></listitem>
<listitem><para>

</para></listitem>

The last line will contain info about the currently used directory where
all of the files in the file set can be found.

The content of this dialog box is updated each time a capture file is
opened/closed.
