the "Follow TCP Stream" displays; that means we can use the same GTK+
calls to set the scrollbar placement on them that is used to set it on
other widgets.
Keep a list of all the GtkScrolledWindows whose scrollbar placement we
control with the GUI preference item for that, and change them all when
the GUI preference item is changed (which means that the GUI preference
item now applies to the "Follow TCP Stream" window as well as to the
hex/ASCII panes).

I did this:
First, Havoc Pennington, in "GTK+/Gnome Application Development", in
Appendix seciton A.3.88, recommends using GtkCTree instead of GtkTree
because GtkCtree is faster, and GtkTree has limitation on its total row
height: since it must fit inside a GdkWindow, it is limited to 32,768
pixels of height. GtkTree is more flexible with regards to the types of
widgets that can be placed in the tree, but since we deal only with text,
that doesn't matter, at least for now.
Secondly, a GtkTree doesn't allow arrow-key navigation (at least as far
as I could tell). It always bothered me that the up and down arrow keys
worked in the packet list and in the hex dump, but no in the protocol tree.
GtkCTree does allow arrow-key navigation. In fact, GtkCTree is a subclass
of GtkCList (the packet list widget), so they behave a lot alike.
I went ahead and fixed the selection bar which has been bothering Richard
for a long time now. :) In the GUI preferences dialogue, you can now set
both the packet list selection bar and the protocol tree selection bar
to either "browse" or "select" mode. "browse" mode is what you're used to:
the arrow keys move an outline of the selection bar, but do not change
the selection. "select" mode does change the selection when the arrow keys
are pressed. The default behavior is set to "select", which seems more
natural for a first-time user.

option right now is the placement of the vertical scrollbars in the 3 panes.
(it's one decision; you can't have the placement of the vertical scrollbar
in the packet list pane different than the placement in the protocol tree
pane, for example).
I did this because I find it convenient to have the vertical scrollbars
on the *left* side of the text. My mouse cursor is usually expanding and
collapsing the protocol tree widgets, and once the protocol tree changes
size, I usually have to scroll. I'd rather move my mouse cursor just a few
pixels over to find the vertical scrollbar.

into "gtk/ui_util.c", and move the declarations of those UI utilities
out of "util.h" into "ui_util.h". (The header file is in the top-level
directory, rather than the "gtk" directory, because it declares
window-system-independent interfaces to routines with
window-system-dependent implementations.)
Add to "gtk/ui_util.c" a routine to set the window and icon title.
Use that routine to make the title of an Ethereal top-level window be
{filename} - Ethereal
if there's a capture open, and have "{filename}" be "<capture>" if it's
a temporary capture file.
