it to capture_file_dlg.c, and rename its header file. We might want to
move the generic file dialog stuff to a file_dlg.c file (it's currently
in dlg_utils.c), and move the non-capture-file dialog stuff in
capture_file_dlg.c to another file.

go to the standard output (as is the case for some such messages,
including the "child is sending an error message to the parent" message,
which shows up if we fail to exec dumpcap). *Anything* other than an
official capture-child message written to the standard output by the
capture child confuses the heck out of the parent, and can cause it to
think the child closed the pipe (resulting, in the case described in the
previous parenthetical note, in no dialog box being displayed for
dumpcap not being executed).

file, strip off the last component to get the pathname of the directory
containing the executable file, and save it for future use. On Windows,
you can get that from the OS, but, on UN*X, you have to look at argv[0]
and derive the absolute path from that (argv[0] is not guaranteed to be
an absolute path, or even a path at all). (In addition, if you're
running from the build directory, you might have to strip off a ".libs/"
added to argv[0] as an artifact of the libtoolizing script.)
Use that in the About dialog, and use it to construct the path of
dumpcap.
Don't put quotes into the path of dumpcap; you don't have to quote
strings with spaces in them when handing them to execvp and, in fact,
you *mustn't* quote them, as the quotes will be treated as part of the
pathname.

using dumpcap as the capture child for Ethereal.
dumpcap is a plain console application now, even for Win32 (so no WinMain, create_console and special piping stuff reguired). The undocumented command line option -Z will switch dumpcap into "child mode", using binary instead of plain text output messages to communicate with a parent Ethereal.
Ethereal's main.c no longer needs to distinguish between child mode or not, so some simplifying here.
capture_sync.c has to call dumpcap in a "hidden window" mode using CreateProcess instead of spawnvp, otherwise an uggly console window would appear. The handles created by _pipe doesn't seem to be inheritable for this function, using CreatePipe instead.
The file capture_loop.c is only needed by dumpcap, removed from Ethereal link objects.
Some debugging aid added and other minor cleanup done.

This way we ensure that errors are displayed during protocol registration.
Use g_error instead of g_warning, if not allowed characters are used in display filter names for protocols. Extend the error message in this case.

To avoid this, the log handler in the error case:
- opens a console window (regardless of the users settings)
- waits for a keypress before continuing to terminate the program
This way, the user will be notified that there's a problem, instead of simply seeing a terminating program only.

I have developed an external plugin to enable ssl decryption in
ethereal.
Me
- Remove unnecessary $Id$ from acinclude.m4
- Added packet-ssl-utils.h to Makefile.common
- Fixed a few warnings
TODO
- Lots of warning fixes (see separate mail)
- Reformat function headers to read like the others do
(return value<newline>function-name...)
- Test on Windows platform
- Review the patch to packet-ssl.c and new files packet-ssl-utils.[hc]

I very often forget to stop a running capture, so Ethereal keeps capturing packets on and on, leaving me with a lot of unrequired packets.
On the other hand (because of the above) I often maximize Ethereal just to see that it's really not capturing any longer.
Looking at the window title isn't of much help, as this title changes with every capture file name loaded, so there's no title which can be easily remembered.
We probably might use this icon mechanism as well, when Ethereal loads a (huge) file, so the user get's a more visual feedback when the capture loading is finished (and probably for other potential "lengthy" tasks as well).

remove a lot of redundant code from tethereal and use (move) stuff from capture_loop.c instead.
concentrate common capture related code in capture_opts.c, e.g. trying to find the right interface to capture from (command line option, preference, first usable) instead of duplicating this code over several files.
remove redundant code from dumpcap.c
this also implements command line option -D (and indexed interfaces at -i) for Ethereal and Dumpcap (as we have it in Tethereal already for a while)

necessary there.
Add a "cmdarg_err()" routine to report command-line option errors; it
creates a console if necessary, and prints the command name and the
trailing newline. Also add "cmdarg_err_cont()", which also creates a
console if necessary, and prints a trailing newline but no command name;
it's used to continue the message. Use those, rather than
"g_warning()", for errors.
That means that we no longer need to pass the command name to various
command-line argument parsing routines.

On Windows, show it using the same usage-message syntax as other
options.
Clean up the usage message.
When doing the "pre-scan" of command-line arguments, suppress error
messages - that suppresses bogus messages for GTK+ command-line flags,
and gets rid of double messages for other errors.

If we get a getopt() error in the pre-scanning, quit - don't do all the
GUI stuff and re-scan the arguments (and print the error message twice).
