Ronnie Sahlberg 532bd00bbb Client LOAD measurement for io-stat
See manpage (hopefully manpage does not reformat my nice ascii graph)

While Service Response Times   and the MIN/MAX/AVG thing in io-stat are measurements on the server load.   The new measurement type LOAD is a measurement of Client LOAD.

Or rather, it is an attempt to measure client LOAD by measuring how much concurrency in its requests the client generates. It the client is slow in starting new i/o when a previous i/o has completed,  this willb e indicated by the concurrency being lowered.

it is an experiment.  i am not aware of any other attempts in deducing client workload from looking at captures.

Guy Harris ffa3ad8ef5 From Ian Schorr:
Add a preference to control whether the "File > Open" dialog box
	should start out in the last directory in which it looked - and
	save that in the preferences file across invocations - or should
	always start out in a user-specified directory, and add another
	preference to specify that directory.

	Write out section name comments into the preferences file.

Clean up white space a bit.

Guy Harris 2584a671aa Filters in Ethereal are usually display filters, not read filters; go
back to describing them as such.

Gilbert Ramirez 0d36ec8de2 Modified the proto_register_field_array usage again. Thanks to Guy's
suggestion, this new method using a static array should use less memory
and be faster. It also has a nice side-effect of making the source-code
more readble, IMHO.

Changed the print routines to look for protocol proto_data instead of
looking at the text label as they did before, hoping that the data hex
dump field item starts with "Data (".

Added the -G keyword to ethereal to make it dump a glossary of display
filter keywords to stdout and exit. This data is then formatted with
the doc/dfilter2pod perl program to pod format, which is combined
with doc/ethereal.pod.template to create doc/ethereal.pod, from which
the ethereal manpage is created. This way we can keep the manpage up-to-date
with a list of fields that can be filtered on.

Guy Harris 6a6f7bb8d8 Don't claim that display filters have "tcpdump" filter syntax, as they
no longer do.  (Leave a placeholder comment; the syntax should perhaps
be described here.)  Update the example filter to match current reality.

Note that the <Return> and <Enter> keys, when typed in the display
filter field, cause the filter to be applied.

Gilbert Ramirez 53d2a96094 Added Johan's RADIUS dissector, finally. I modified it to fit in with the
new proto_tree routines. I also removed the check for lex and yacc from
wiretap's configure script. The IP dissector now uses
proto_register_field_array().

Gilbert Ramirez 7ea29fb80d Added Aaron Hillegass' summary dialogue. We're ignoring the problem with
NetMon statistic packets for now. We might fix that problem with wiretap,
either filtering out those packets, and/or providing the summary
information through a new wiretap API.

Guy Harris 5e1f2e3a46 Get rid of an extra line in the author credits (Brad Robel-Forrest
already appears in the list; the extra line is probably leftover from
cutting-and-pasting the author list from the AUTHORS file).

Laurent Deniel 32603ce155 Live data capture and display enhancement that allows network capture and
display of fully decoded packets at the same time.
Options added:
-F : fork capture process
-S : sync mode ala tail -f (implies -F)
-f : filter expression
-Q : exit after capture (implies -k)

Gilbert Ramirez 5ccc874dbe Touch-up fixes to my previous fix of making the packet-capture facility save
to a file unknown to the user first. The manpage has now been updated to reflect
the ability of the user to use the TMPDIR environment variable to change the
location of this capture file. And now the capture file is deleted when
ethereal exits, if the user has not saved the trace file.

Gilbert Ramirez 2870ce29ce Capturing packets from ethereal now saves the capture in an "anonymous" buffer. That is, it's
a random name chosen by tempnam(), unknown to the user. If the user decides to save that
trace, he then uses File | Save to save it to a file. File | Save As lets him make a copy
of his named trace file as well. I also updated my e-mail address in the various credit
locations.
