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.

quit. Temporary coloring filters can be set by:
- pressing <ctrl>-<digit> will create a conversation coloring filter based on the
addresses of the currently selected packet (order TCP/UDP/IP/Ethernet)
This can also be achieved from the "View|Colorize Conversation" menu.
- Rightclicking on a packet in the packet-list will give the option to
"Colorize Conversation" just as "Conversation Filter" does.
- Rightclicking on an item in the packet-detail-list will give the option to
"Colorize with filter" which works similar to "Apply as filter"
Temporary filters can be cleared from the same menus or by pressing <ctrl>-<space>.
This patch also adds an item to the above mentioned menu's to add a permanent color filter
in the same way.
The colors for the temporary coloring rules are now hardcoded as I do not know
how to change the color of menu-items and therefore I chose to use icons to
show the actual color of each of the ten temporary coloring rules. Is it at all
possible to have different menu items in different colors?
One other way of solving this is to recreate the icons on the fly after changing
the colors. I will have a look into that once it is clear whether I can use
different colors within the menu structure.

svn path=/trunk/; revision=21156
A new function is introduced, prefs_register_protocol_subtree(), that allows the subtree the protocol should appear under to be specified. The subtree is specified as a string, with a '/' delimiting each subtree element. For example,
prefs_register_protocol(proto_dap, prefs_register_dap);
becomes
prefs_register_protocol_subtree("OSI/X.500", proto_dap, prefs_register_dap);
The function will create all the intermediate subtree nodes that are required, if they don't already exist.
This allows the grouping of procotols which should make the list of protocols more manageable as even more are added. The current aim is to group by protocol family e.g.
+ OSI
+ X.400
X.411
X.420
+ X.500
DISP
DAP
DOP
DSP
+ X.509
X509AF
X509CE
...
but others grouping could be envisioned (e.g. by first letter).
As the intermediate nodes may already have preferences (e.g. OSI), then modules are now allowed to have submodules. Previously each node was either a subtree or held preferences. This is consistent with the "User Interface" node.
The subtree structure has no effect on how the preferences are saved to file, and the "Protocol Preferences..." menu option will bring up the preferences expanded to the correct node.
In addition, a new "blank page" has been introduced for intermediate nodes that have no preferences (and is also used when the "Protocols" node itself is chosen). This prevents confusion when the user moves from a node with preferences to a node without preferences, but the page old page is still shown.
There is also a change to prevent '#' characters in a value being treated as a comment when parsing the preferences file. (There is nothing that adds comments when writing the preferences file.)

include fails as we don't do -Iwiretap.
If we have it, include <sys/stat.h> in epan/filesystem.c - we need it
for stat() and the macros and structures it uses.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=16410
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.
