option explanation is more detailed now, I've added the option parameters to the description
added version information to the usage output
instead of using the usage page to display the available file and encapsulation types (which makes the usage page almost unreadable), use empty options -F or -T to print the available types. I've used optopt for this, it seems to be portable that way ...

- Editcap
Mikko Tiihonen filed bug 379 including a patch for editcap. This wasn't picked up so far. I've ported the patch to svn 16820 and included a documentation patch.
-packet-ieee80211.c
Radek Vokal of RedHat filed a bug found by Vladimir Kondratiev of Intel in the 802.11 dissector. Radek provided a sample capture and Vladimir a oneliner patch. I've ported the patch to svn 16820 and tested it against the provided capture. Works well.
-From Kan Sasaki
A patch for packet-ospf.c is attached:
- Fix the handling of the DN-bit of options field.
- Add a new function dissect_ospf_bitfield() to dissect a bitfield
such as options, flags. The following functions are merged by
using this function.
- dissect_ospf_lls_extended_options()
- dissect_ospf_dbd()
- dissect_ospf_options()
- dissect_ospf_v3_prefix_options()
- dissect the flags and prefix-options bitfield.
- lldp Bugfix Bug 596 LLDP TIA Network Policy Decode is not correct
- Camel make it possible to dissect based on OID.

currently limited to Ethereal and all the variants of libpcap filetypes only.
We might want to add output compression support to the other tools as well (tethereal, mergecap, ...).
We might also want to add support for the other filetypes, but this is only possible if the filetype functions doesn't use special output operations like fseek.
One bug is still left: if the input and output filetypes while saving are the same, Ethereal currently optimizes this by simply copy the binary file instead of using wiretap (so it will be faster but it will ignore the compress setting).
Don't know a good workaround for this, as I don't know a way to find out if the input file is currently compressed or not. One idea might be to use a heuristic on the filesize (compared to the packet size summmary). Another workaround I see is to remove this optimization, which is of course not the way I like to do it ...

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.

addition to an error code, an error info string, for
WTAP_ERR_UNSUPPORTED, WTAP_ERR_UNSUPPORTED_ENCAP, and
WTAP_ERR_BAD_RECORD errors. Replace the error messages logged with
"g_message()" for those errors with g_strdup()ed or g_strdup_printf()ed
strings returned as the error info string, and change the callers of
those routines to, for those errors, put the info string into the
printed message or alert box for the error.
Add messages for cases where those errors were returned without printing
an additional message.
Nobody uses the error code from "cf_read()" - "cf_read()" puts up the
alert box itself for failures; get rid of the error code, so it just
returns a success/failure indication.
Rename "file_read_error_message()" to "cf_read_error_message()", as it
handles read errors from Wiretap, and have it take an error info string
as an argument. (That handles a lot of the work of putting the info
string into the error message.)
Make some variables in "ascend-grammar.y" static.
Check the return value of "erf_read_header()" in "erf_seek_read()".
Get rid of an unused #define in "i4btrace.c".

equivalents for the toplevel directory. The removal of winsock2.h will
hopefully not cause any problems under MSVC++, as those files using
struct timeval still include wtap.h, which still includes winsock2.h.

"int" and to check "getopt()"s return value with -1 rather than EOF.
Fix other "getopt()" loops to check against -1 as well (EOF is -1 on
most if not all platforms, but the Single UNIX Specification says
"getopt()" returns -1, so we should check against -1, not EOF).

reading the capture file. Have callers of "wtap_snapshot_length()"
treat a value of 0 as "unknown", and default to WTAP_MAX_PACKET_SIZE (so
that, when writing a capture file in a format that *does* store the
snapshot length, we can at least put *something* in the file).
If we don't know the snapshot length of the current capture file, don't
display a value in the summary window.
Don't use "cfile.snap" as the snapshot length option when capturing -
doing so causes Ethereal to default, when capturing, to the snapshot
length of the last capture file that you read in, rather than to the
snapshot length of the last capture you did (or the initial default of
"no snapshot length").
Redo the "Capture Options" dialog box to group options into sections
with frames around them, and add units to the snapshot length, maximum
file size, and capture duration options, as per a suggestion by Ulf
Lamping. Also add units to the capture count option.
Make the snapshot length, capture count, maximum file size, and capture
duration options into a combination of a check box and a spin button.
If the check box is not checked, the limit in question is inactive
(snapshot length of 65535, no max packet count, no max file size, no max
capture duration); if it's checked, the spinbox specifies the limit.
Default all of the check boxes to "not checked" and all of the spin
boxes to small values.
Use "gtk_toggle_button_get_active()" rather than directly fetching the
state of a check box.

there's no need to keep it around in memory - when the frame data is
read in when handing a frame, read in the information, if any, necessary
to reconstruct the frame header, and reconstruct it. This saves some
memory.
This requires that the seek-and-read function be implemented inside
Wiretap, and that the Wiretap handle remain open even after we've
finished reading the file sequentially.
This also points out that we can't really do X.25-over-Ethernet
correctly, as we don't know where the direction (DTE->DCE or DCE->DTE)
flag is stored; it's not clear how the Ethernet type 0x0805 for X.25
Layer 3 is supposed to be handled in any case. We eliminate
X.25-over-Ethernet support (until we find out what we're supposed to
do).

snapshot length before writing them to the output file; this may come in
handy if you are translating the file to a different format so that it
can be read by a program that can't handle packets above a certain size
(e.g., the snoop in Solaris 2.5.1 or 2.6, which reject Ethernet packets
larger than the Ethernet MTU, and thus can't handle gigabit Ethernet
captures using jumbo frames).
