Ulf Lamping e43c7d56fe from Jaap Keuter:
The attached patch extends the synopsys and adds an 'Examples' chapter to
the editcap documentation.

I've edited this a bit, without the real knowledge :-(, to make it:

a. look better
b. make more sense (at least to me)

Ulf Lamping 4443681a9e fix Ethereal so command line capture parameter will work with kilobytes (again)
remove Byte(s) from the dropdown list of filesizes, this doesn't make sense
replace 1000 with 1024, as all (modern?) file managers are based on 1024 bytes for a kilobyte (the old KB vs. KiB controversy)

Guy Harris 266e1a3491 Add "tvb_get_ipv4()" and "tvb_get_ipv6()" addresses, to fetch IPv4 and

so that it gets the right answer on little-endian *AND* big-endian
machines.

Gerald Combs 00f087b2f0 In doc/Makefile.nmake, use the "install-deps" target from the root
Makefile.nmake instead of doing our own XCOPYing.  Use the "clean-deps"
target when we're done instead of leaving DLLs lying around.

Normalize the use of underscores vs hyphens in the "clean-deps" target.

Ulf Lamping 047cdd0f2a First part to fix #148: use command line parameter -o not only for preferences but also for recent settings.
This way we can simply remove the GUI related command line parameters -B, -P and -T, which are useless now.

Ronnie Sahlberg fcab322ada Some applications do very naughty things like reusing a port for a different protocol during different stages of an application cycle.
This is very naughty and will cause problems when we have assigned a dissector to a dynamic port using conversation_set_dissector().


To make ethereal handle this case I have changed the try_conversation_dissector() to allow it to fail and return 0,   meaning   yes there is indeed a protocol registered for this conversation but that protocol rejected this packet.
(which only happens for "new" style dissectors, "old" style dissectors will never reject a packet that way)

When this happens  the decode_udp_port() helper will still allow other dissectors to be tried, in the hope that the conversation is now used for some other protocol and thus someone else might be able to decode the packet.


Update SNMP and TFTP dissectors to  check that even if there already is a conversation but that conversation does NOT have snmp/tftp registered as the dissector for it, then create a new conversation anyway and attach the proper dissector.

Since ethereal keeps track of which frame number a conversation started in, this actually works really well.

Lars Roland 5bb4e926aa add the new target "install-plugins" to nmake makefile
in the plugins subdirectory. This target will copy all plugins to plugins/$(VERSION), thus (t)ethereal will
find and load the plugins when called from within the source tree.

call this target from the main nmake makefile after
installing other dependencies. call it from the nmake makefile
in the doc subdirectory before calling "tethereal -G".
This way "tethereal -G" will recognize the filterable
fields from the plugins, too.

Lars Roland 2f5fee9c99 Add an install-deps target to the nmake makefiles.
This target will copy all files, mainly dlls, which
are necessary to run (t)ethereal to the source tree.

After copying all necessary dlls to the source tree,
you can run (t)ethereal directly from the source tree.

Boolean value that's true if any of the bits in question are set and
false if none of them are, not to an integer or slice value with the

Guy Harris 8b334b9148 Make it a bit clearer that what "-w" writes is raw binary packet data,
not the result of dissecting that data.

Note that "-F" applies to the output of "-w", that "-S" says "dissect
and print even if you're doing '-w'", and that "-T" applies to the
dissected output, not the "-w" output.
