Guy Harris 357cfd3b03 A bunch of "{Mac} OS X" -> "macOS" changes.
Avoid anachronisms, however; there was no "macOS 10.0" or even "OS X
10.0", for example.  It was "Mac OS X" until 10.8 (although 10.7 was
sometimes called "OS X" and sometimes called "Mac OS X"), and it was "OS
X" from 10.8 to 10.11.

Gerald Combs 635f0a5c2c Update the README.
The formatting was mostly AsciiDoc-compliant. Take it the rest of the
way. Update the list of supported operating sytems, along with other
info. Use HTTPS URLs. Remove README.tru64 while we're here.

Jeff Morriss 61d522ffee Indicate that Python is required to compile Wireshark.
Remove some trailing white space at the same time.

(The ./configure options in INSTALL are significantly out of date--that will
be the subject of a separate commit.)

Guy Harris 986c31ef88 Get rid of the list of capture file formats, so we have one fewer list
that we can fail to update.  Point the user at the Wireshark man page,
instead.

Gerald Combs e783130961 We last supported NT 4.0 with version 0.99.4 (according to
wireshark.nsi, at least). Drop it from the "supported" list and add a
note about NT 4.0 and older Windows versions.

Guy Harris ae9f16c37b We apper to spell it "TShark" rather than "Tshark", the fact that it's
"Wireshark" rather than "WireShark" nonwithstanding.

Say we run on NT 4.0 rather than "NT" - I don't know whether we run on
NT 3.x (and 2000/2003/XP are really NT 5.x and Vista/2008 are really NT
6.x - that's why Microsoft are talking about "Windows 7" as the next big
release).

In the capture-privileges paragraph, note that it's dumpcap that needs
to run as root, and suggest not only that Wireshark shouldn't be set-UID
root, but that it shouldn't even be run as root, and that the same
applies to TShark.

Update "How to Report a Bug" to reflect that we're telling people to
report bugs on Bugzilla, and that "wireshark -v"/"tshark -v" give almost
all the version information we want.

Guy Harris 8a8b883450 Set the svn:eol-style property on all text files to "native", so that
they have LF at the end of the line on UN*X and CR/LF on Windows;
hopefully this means that if a CR/LF version is checked in on Windows,
the CRs will be stripped so that they show up only when checked out on
Windows, not on UN*X.

Guy Harris ee1094b140 Note that Ethereal's and Tethereal's native capture file format is
libpcap format, and say that it's also used by "other tools" (tcpdump
and Ethereal/Tethereal aren't the only tools that write captures in that
format).

Weaken the claim that we read Etherpeek files to say only that we read
Etherpeek versions 5, 6, and 7 for Macintosh, so people don't conclude
that we read Etherpeek-for-Windows captures (we don't).
