configure and use more than one set of preferences and configuration files.
This can be found in the "Configuration Profiles..." menu item from the Edit
menu, or by pressing Shift-Ctrl-A. It's also possible to start wireshark
and tshark with a named profile by using the "-C ProfileName" option.
A new status pane in the main window will show the current profile.
The configuration files currently stored in the Profiles are:
- Preferences
- Capture Filters
- Display Filters
- Coloring Rules
- Disabled Protocols
- User Accessible Tables
The recent data are by design not added to the profile.
Planned future enhancements:
- make a more convenient function to switch between profiles
- add a "clone profile" button to copy an existing profile
- make the profiles list active and accept return as OK
- save users "Decode as" in the profile
- make new, clone and deletion of profiles more secure
- make some of the recent values available in the profile
This patch also fixes:
- setting default status pane sizes
- a bug setting status pane for packets when not having main lower pane.

est. Use g_ascii_strcasecmp() and g_ascii_strncasecmp(), and supply our
own versions if they're missing from GLib (as is the case with GLib
1.x).
In the code to build the list of named fields for Diameter, don't use
g_strdown(); do our own g_ascii_-style upper-case to lower-case mapping
in the hash function and use g_ascii_strcasecmp() in the compare
function.
We do this because there is no guarantee that toupper(), tolower(), and
functions that use them will, for example, map between "I" and "i" in
all locales; in Turkish locales, for example, there are, in both
upper case and lower case, versions of "i" with and without a dot, and
the upper-case version of "i" is "I"-with-a-dot and the lower-case
version of "I" is "i"-without-a-dot. This causes strings that should
match not to match.
This finishes fixing bug 2010 - an earlier checkin prevented the crash
(as there are other ways to produce the same crash, e.g. a bogus
dictionary.xml file), but didn't fix the case-insensitive string matching.

fetch the major OS version. If we're running Windows >= 6 (Vista)
_and_ npf.sys isn't running, warn the user in Wireshark and TShark.
Add a recent prefs item to disable the warning in Wireshark.

setuid instead of Wireshark. Remove the "DANGEROUS" notices, but leave it
disabled by default. Whine if the user runs Wireshark or TShark as root.
Add a preference to disable the whining. Add a "setuid-root" script that
can be used to switch dumpcap and TShark's setuid-ness on and off for
development and testing. Update the release notes and README.packaging.

When the "recent" file is written, any references to files on the U3 device itself are modified to have the drive replace with "$U3_DEVICE_PATH". Similarly, when the recent file is read, "$U3_DEVICE_PATH" is replaced with the current U3 device path.
This ensures that if/when the U3 device path changes when inserting it into different machines, recent captures on the U3 device itself can still be opened from the recent menu.

by myself:
Corrected patch; epan/column.c and epan/column_utils.c were not included. This
one has now been properly tested against a clean checkout of today's code.
- New menu option available under view\time display format
- New sub-option (e) to -t switch for both wireshark and tshark
- Extended recent settings code to handle new value
- Did NOT add new explicit epoch time column

be adaptable to other platforms.
The official announcement won't come until next week, so you'll have to
read the source for details. :)

to do this, I've added file_util.h to wiretap (would file_compat.h be a better name?), and provide compat_macros like eth_open() instead of open(). While at it, move other file related things there, like #include <io.h>, definition of O_BINARY and alike, so it's all in one place.
deleted related things from config.h.win32
As of these massive changes, I'm almost certain that this will break the Unix build. I'll keep an eye on the buildbot so hopefully everything is working again soon.

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.

values in the "recent" file. Also, check for syntax errors in numerical
values.
Set the main window height, as well as the main window width, to default
values before we read in the values from the "recent" file. (Use
non-positive values here if you want the default to be "don't set the
geometry" - note that you can't set one to a positive value and the
other one to a non-positive value and expect only one to be set; they
*both* have to be positive in order for the size to be set.)
Treat non-positive values for those settings in the "recent" structure
as an indication that we don't have values from them and that we should
therefore not set the window size.

to be the cause of the problem I saw wherein recent versions of Ethereal
were popping up the main window in an inconvenient place - the problem

else).

failed and, if it failed, how it failed. Have it leave up to its caller
the job of reporting that it couldn't load the requested font; have its
callers do that, and have them set the zoom level on failure so that we
have a zoom level that is at least more likely to work. Make the alert
boxes for "font_apply()" failures be error boxes, not warning boxes.

b.) added new feature "Edit->Go To First Packet" "Edit->Go To Last Packet" with corresponding menu and toolbar items
c.) added new feature "View->Zoom In" / "View->Zoom Out" / View->Normal Size" with corresponding menu and toolbar items
This feature will act as a "size offset" to the current fontsize, so that the packet list/tree view/... will have a larger/smaller font size.
The value is stored inside the recent file.
d.) Win32 only: Try to get the win32 system font and fontsize at program startup and show the menus/dialogs and such with the same font and fontsize like other win32 windows.
This makes the program make a *lot* more feel like a normal win32 program.

it's only used in the latter; that avoids lots of warnings about
"ts_type_text" being defined but not used in other source files that
include "epan/timestamp.h". (If it's going to be used in more than one
file, make it non-static and declare it "extern" in "epan/timestamp.h".)
Define TS_NOT_SET as ((ts_type)-1), and use that when initializing
"timestamp_type" in Ethereal and when checking to see whether
"timestamp_type" was set, to avoid signed vs. unsigned comparison
warnings.
Clean up indentation.
