the "text vs. PostScript" choice. The "text vs. PostScript" choice
should probably ultimately be done with a generic set of print methods,
to handle various platform-native print mechanisms more cleanly (and
perhaps the dialog box code for "export as {PDML,PSML}" should be
separate from the "export as text"/"print" dialog).

"capture_pcap_cb()"; they're only done in live captures, and that
arranges that "process_packet()" gets called with the correct
wtap_dumper for the current file even if we switch to a new file.
Move the packet-count reporting out of "write_packet()" to
"capture_pcap_cb()" as well, as that's also only done in live captures.
That pretty much guts "write_packet()", so just move what's left up to
"process_packet()".

Do dissection in Tethereal iff:
we're printing information about each packet;
we're using a read filter on the packets;

and not writing to another capture file, for use with "-z" options.
Note that "-z proto" *doesn't* print statistics at the end - it modifies
the packet summary output.
Note that on at least some BSDs the "status" character is set to "off"

don't count packets twice if we're counting and dissecting.
Print the packet count with ^T iff we're not updating a displayed packet
count as packets arrive, regardless of whether we're printing packet
information, saving packets to a file, or both (tcpdump prints it
regardless of whether it's printing packet information or saving packets
to a file).

add a config.nmake option to control whether to build
libethereal.dll or not;
remove "./wiretap" from PATH to prevent problems due to
wrongly-loaded files;
build dissector.lib with MSVC;
move "print.c" and "ps.c" to the dissector helpers, as "print.c"
imports variables from packet-frame.c and packet-data.c, which
are in libethereal;
move "g711.c" out of the dissector helpers, as they're used only
by Ethereal in a tap, not in Tethereal or in any dissector;
add a .def file for libethereal;
arrange to declare global variables exported from libethereal

those variables;
update the NSIS installer.
Make the "configure" script define ETH_VAR_IMPORT as "extern".

Make the format argument to "simple_dialog()" a "const" pointer.
Fix up the read-error message in Tethereal to end with a newline.
If a simple dialog is requested before the main window or the

that dissectors should call to report file open and read errors, and
have "report_open_failure()" and "report_read_failure()" call through
those pointers, rather than being defined and exported by the
application using libethereal - instead, the application would define
those functions and pass pointers to them to 'epan_init()".
Move "report_err.h" to the epan directory, as the functions it declares

addition to an error code, an error info string, for
WTAP_ERR_UNSUPPORTED, WTAP_ERR_UNSUPPORTED_ENCAP, and
WTAP_ERR_BAD_RECORD errors. Replace the error messages logged with
"g_message()" for those errors with g_strdup()ed or g_strdup_printf()ed
strings returned as the error info string, and change the callers of
those routines to, for those errors, put the info string into the
printed message or alert box for the error.
Add messages for cases where those errors were returned without printing
an additional message.
Nobody uses the error code from "cf_read()" - "cf_read()" puts up the
alert box itself for failures; get rid of the error code, so it just
returns a success/failure indication.
Rename "file_read_error_message()" to "cf_read_error_message()", as it
handles read errors from Wiretap, and have it take an error info string
as an argument. (That handles a lot of the work of putting the info
string into the error message.)
Make some variables in "ascend-grammar.y" static.
Check the return value of "erf_read_header()" in "erf_seek_read()".
Get rid of an unused #define in "i4btrace.c".

Check for errors when printing packets.
Report failure to open a print destination and failure to write to a
print destination differently.
Don't have the "print preamble" and "print final" routines return
success/failure indications - revert to the old scheme where they
didn't, and have the callers use "ferror()" to check for errors.
Report write errors when printing dissections in Tethereal.
Report print errors as errors, not warnings.

translate UNIX errno values to a somewhat friendly message format
string.
Rename "file_open_error_message()" in "file.c" to
"cf_open_error_message()", make "cf_open_error_message()" use the new
"file_open_error_message()" for UNIX errno values, have "do_capture()"
in "capture.c" use "file_open_error_message()" to report errors from
"open()", and make "cf_open_error_message()" static as nothing outside
"file.c" uses it.
Do similar stuff in "tethereal.c".

DISSECTOR_SUPPORT_{SRC,OBJECTS}.
Add some additional files, required by dissectors, to those lists.
Extract the stuff to get version information strings for libraries and
the OS, which is *not* needed by dissectors, from "util.c", which
contains routines that *are* needed by dissectors, and put it into a
separate file.
Make "dftest" link only with the dissector support stuff, not with all

libpcap than in tcpdump.org libpcap; it's been deprecated for that
reason. "pcap_open_dead()" has been in libpcap since 0.6, so only for
0.5[.x] will you have "pcap_compile_nopcap()" but not "pcap_open_dead()"
- for now, we use "pcap_open_dead()" rather than
"pcap_compile_nopcap()", and don't do the check for capture filters in
systems with libpcaps that lack "pcap_open_dead()".

expired *before* writing a packet, rather than *after* writing a packet,
so that if you get no packets for a sufficiently long period that the
timeout expires before you get a new packet, the new packet is in the
beginning of a new file (as you might get more packets right after that,
and want them to be in the new file, rather than have the first packet
at the end of one file and the rest of the packets in another file).
