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).

selected before we started re-colorizing or re-filtering the display, as
when the first row is added to the clist, that may be selected and thus
made the current frame.
This means that we can't find the row corresponding to the
previously-selected frame, if any, by checking as each packet is
colorized/filtered and see whether its "frame_data" structure is equal
to "cf->current_frame", as that'll always say that the first frame in
the display is the selected frame.
Instead, we recored the value of "cf->current_frame" before we do
anything to the clist, have "add_packet_to_packet_list()" return either
the row number of the frame (if it passed the filter and thus was added
to the clist) or -1 (if it didn't pass the filter and thus wasn't added
to the clist), and, after "add_packet_to_packet_list()", if the current
frame is the one that was the selected row, remember its row number (if
any), and, when we're finished colorizing/filtering the display, make
that row the current row if it's not -1 (-1 means that the selected row
didn't pass the filter).
Also, don't do that until after we've thawed the clist, as the vertical
adjustment for the clist doesn't reflect reality until then, and
attempting to go to a given row won't work right until the vertical
adjustment for the clist reflects reality.
Shove all the code to set the selected and focus rows, and to make said
row visible, into a routine, so the "Find Frame" and "Go To Frame" code
can use it as well.

packets that are currently being displayed from that capture.
Centralize the code to control whether "File:Save" and "File:Save As"
are enabled (and *always* have "File:Save As" enabled if you have a
capture; "File:Save" is enabled only if you have a live capture you've
not yet saved, although it does the same thing as "File:Save As").
Have the "save_file" member of a "capture_file" structure represent
*only* the file currently being *written* to by a capture, and, if there
is no capture currently in progress, have it be NULL; the name of the
file currently being *displayed" is in the "filename" member, and an
"is_tempfile" member indicates whether it's a temporary file for a live
capture or not.
Have "close_cap_file()" delete the current capture file if it's a
temporary capture file that hasn't been saved (in its entirety - saving
selected frames doesn't count). Do the same (if there *is* a current
capture file) when exiting.
The "Ready to load or capture" message is the only statusbar message in
the "main" context; "close_cap_file()" should never pop it, it should
only pop whatever message exists in the "file" context, and thus has no
need to take, as an argument, the context for the message it should pop.
Update the man page to reflect the new behavior of "File:Save" and
"File:Save As", and to reflect recent changes to "Display:Match Selected".

needs.

When filtering the display, readjust the display to show the "current"

first frame becomes the "current" frame; when a frame is selected, it
becomes the "current" frame, and remains so *even if you unselect it*,
until another frame is selected.

currently in effect will be the one that was last applied - just free up
the text of the new filter, and whatever memory was allocated for the

This means we allocate a new dfilter when a new filter is to be applied,
rather than recycling stuff from the old filter, as we want the old

This means that "cf.dfilter" and "cf.dfcode" will be null if there's no

and in different capture files; throw in some heuristics to try to

1) PPP-over-HDLC (some version of ISDN4BSD?);
2) big-endian AF_ value (BSD on big-endian platforms);
3) little-endian AF_ value (BSD on little-endian platforms);
4) two octets of 0 followed by an Ethernet type (Linux, at least
on little-endian platforms, as mutated by "libpcap").
Make a separate Wiretap encapsulation type, WTAP_ENCAP_NULL,
corresponding to DLT_NULL.
Have the PPP code dissect the frame if it's PPP-over-HDLC, and have
"ethertype()" dissect the Ethernet type and the rest of the packet if
it's a Linux-style header; dissect it ourselves only if it's an AF_
value.
Have Wiretap impose a maximum packet size of 65535 bytes, so that it
fails more gracefully when handed a corrupt "libpcap" capture file
(other capture file formats with more than a 16-bit capture length
field, if any, will have that check added later), and put that size in
"wtap.h" and have Ethereal use it as its notion of a maximum packet
size.
Have Ethereal put up a "this file appears to be damaged or corrupt"
message box if Wiretap returns a WTAP_ERR_BAD_RECORD error when opening
or reading a capture file.
Include loopback interfaces in the list of interfaces offered by the

IP address associated with it, and only put one entry in the list for a
given interface (SIOCGIFCONF returns one entry per interface *address*,
not per *interface* - and even if you were to use only IP addresses, an
interface could conceivably have more than one IP address).
Exclusively use Wiretap encapsulation types internally, even when

When creating the temporary file for a capture, use "create_tempfile()",
to close a security hole opened by the fact that "tempnam()" creates a
temporary file, but doesn't open it, and we open the file with the name
it gives us - somebody could remove the file and plant a link to some
file, and, if as may well be the case when Ethereal is capturing
packets, it's running as "root", that means we write a capture on top of
that file.... (The aforementioned changes to Wiretap let you open a
capture file for writing given an file descriptor, "fdopen()"-style,
which this change requires.)

it's called after "open_cap_file()" has been called, and is always

The former, which used to be called by "load_cap_file()", now just opens
the file and, if the open succeeds, closes any capture file we
previously had open, reinitializes any protocols that need
reinitialization, and saves information about the new capture file in
the "capture_file" structure to which it was passed a pointer. The
latter reads the file already opened by "read_cap_file()".
For "File/Open", call "open_cap_file()" before dismissing the file
selection box; if it fails, "open_cap_file()" will have popped up a
message box complaining about it - just return, leaving the file
selection box open so the user can, after dismissing the message box,
either try again with a different file name, or dismiss the file
selection box. (Other file selection boxes should be made to work the
same way.) If "open_cap_file()" succeeds, dismiss the file selection
box, and read the capture file in.

N^2 in the ultimate size of the list (as "g_list_append()" is linear in
the size of the list, at least when used in the way the GLib
documentation says to use it); instead, maintain our own linked list of
"frame_data" structures for all packets read, including a pointer to the
last element.
"gtk_clist_set_row_data()" is linear in the row number, so if it's used
to attach a pointer to the "frame_data" structure for a packet to the
packet list GtkClist row for each packet, that's also N^2 in the number
of packets in that packet list; instead, store the row number in the
"frame_data" structure, and find the packet for a given row by scanning
the list for it (we were already scanning the list linearly to find that
packet's index in the list of all packets; that's only done when a
packet's selected, so it's not *too* bad, but it might be nice to avoid
