Gerald Combs 0ae9c3e8eb Docs: Remove the authors list from wireshark(1).
The AUTHORS section of wireshark(1) is about half the content of the man
page. While it's important to acknowledge the people who have
contributed to the project, the goal of the man page is to tell people
how to use Wireshark.

Replace the list of authors with text that acknowledges their
contributions along with pointers to the AUTHORS file and the list on
the main web site.

Jörg Mayer 8b1b8b548c The syntax for capture filters has been moved from
tcpdump (in the tcpdump package) into its own manpage
(pcap-filter) in the libpcap package in the CVS HEAD
branch. Reference the new and the old location for that
information.

Sake Blok 9b6f806089 This patch adds (ten) temporary coloring rules which will only live until Wireshark is
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.

Stephen Fisher 6d8d2854c8 From Sake Blok:
Fix for bug #491: Unexpected frame.time_delta behavior

This patch ... fixes bug 491. It does this by changing the
behaviour of the frame.time_delta field so it reflects the delta
time between captured packets (tshark already did this).  To keep
the delta time between displayed packets, the field 
frame.time_delta_displayed is created.

Ulf Lamping acefba187a from Sake Blok:
I have changed the patch according to your suggestions and also changed
the doc[book] files accordingly. I tested the patch and it does seem to
work fine on my test-system.

ULFL: In addition, I've added the en-/disabling to the other (already existing) Copy menu items - some just did nothing, some crashed if nothing was selected.
I've also sligthly changed the menu seperators and made both context menus look a bit more identical.

Stephen Fisher 75acf34518 From Douglas Pratley with trivial changes and documentation changes
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

Gerald Combs 7d95399a0d Use SESSIONNAME instead of CLIENTNAME to try to detect RDP sessions.
Look for a string that starts with "rdp".  This should take care of
cases where a default capture filter is set needlessly.

Guy Harris d26ea2b24d Use L<> on all links.
Don't use anything on man page references - pod2man handles that.

Don't refer to "the capture file format section" of the Wireshark man
page, as there's no section explicitly labelled as such; just refer to
the beginning of the DESCRIPTION section.
