svn path=/trunk/; revision=17207
2006-01-12fix sequence of time stamp ordering: from most to least information contentUlf Lamping1-7/+7

2006-01-11add <>add <> to the option parametersUlf Lamping1-205/+93
rephrase some sentences svn path=/trunk/; revision=17005
2005-12-09Repeatedly indicate that "-w" is for writing binary packet data, andGuy Harris1-10/+18
that if you want to send text to a file, just redirect the standard output. I've seen at least one message on the Ethereal lists from somebody who didn't realize that, and I think I've seen more. svn path=/trunk/; revision=16737
2005-11-18Add support for the "-B" flag to Tethereal on Windows.Guy Harris1-0/+7
svn path=/trunk/; revision=16542
2005-10-07fix Ethereal so command line capture parameter will work with kilobytes (again)Ulf Lamping1-2/+2
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) svn path=/trunk/; revision=16149
2005-07-24from Graeme Hewson: "Fixes for ethereal config files"Ulf Lamping1-48/+62
svn path=/trunk/; revision=15041
2005-06-04make a complete redesign of the files sectionUlf Lamping1-50/+72
svn path=/trunk/; revision=14547
2005-06-04update usage output and manual pages for both Ethereal and Tethereal to ↵Ulf Lamping1-75/+74
reflect the latest changes in the command line. clarifications of some command line parameter descriptions in the manual pages this also fixes #221 svn path=/trunk/; revision=14545
2005-03-30Make it a bit clearer that what "-w" writes is raw binary packet data,Guy Harris1-5/+8
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. svn path=/trunk/; revision=13975
2005-03-01From Graeme Hewson: rename the global preferences file to "preferences"Guy Harris1-14/+14
(it's now in an "ethereal" directory, so there's no need for it to have a name that distinguishes it from files for other programs) - if it's not found as "preferences", try "ethereal.conf" for compatibility - and update the man pages appropriately. Fix a typo in the section color filters (the file name is "colorfilters", not "color filters"). svn path=/trunk/; revision=13559
2005-01-13Add support for a personal hosts file.Guy Harris1-16/+25
Clean up the description of the global and personal ethers and ipxnets files. svn path=/trunk/; revision=13017
2004-10-20Update the man page to indicate that "-q", when capturing without "-w",Guy Harris1-3/+4
suppresses the printing of packet information. svn path=/trunk/; revision=12353
2004-08-03Disallow "-f" when not doing a live capture, rather than just ignoringGuy Harris1-5/+9
the specified filter. Note in the manual that you can't use capture filters when reading a capture file, and that read filters might require too much CPU when doing a live capture. svn path=/trunk/; revision=11594
2004-07-08"Frame" -> "Packet", as per UI and Ethereal man page changes.Guy Harris1-12/+12
svn path=/trunk/; revision=11345
2004-07-08Document "-T psml", and give more details in the descriptiion of theGuy Harris1-24/+58
"-T" option. Talk about packet details rather than the protocol tree, just as we do in the Ethereal manual page. Clean up the descriptions of some of the "-z" options. Fix some typos. svn path=/trunk/; revision=11344
2004-05-31Make "-q" suppress packet printing when you're reading a capture fileGuy Harris1-6/+25
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" by default, so you have to set it explicitly in order to be able to ^T an application such as Tethereal. svn path=/trunk/; revision=11038
2004-05-01From Lars Roland: document the SIP statistics.Guy Harris1-0/+15

2004-04-25build a list of the input file formats instead of a floating text,Ulf Lamping1-35/+115
added program names to HTML titles, various minor fixes svn path=/trunk/; revision=10686
2004-02-11Include EyeSDN USB S0 trace files in the list of file formats we read.Guy Harris1-6/+6
svn path=/trunk/; revision=10040
2003-12-18WildPackets' EtherHelp appears to write EtherPeek-compatible files,Guy Harris1-2/+2
except that the 0x80 bit is turned on in the file version number field. Turn that bit off before processing that field. svn path=/trunk/; revision=9342
2003-12-09-Tpdml and -Tps force -V. Thus, -V is no longer required when using -Tpdml.Gilbert Ramirez1-4/+2
Eventually, -Tps will not force -V, and will print summaries when -V is not selected. However, work still has to be done there. svn path=/trunk/; revision=9218
2003-12-07Put the "-V" flag in boldface, so pod2man doesn't whine.Guy Harris1-2/+2
svn path=/trunk/; revision=9186
2003-12-06Add the ability to print packet dissections in PDML (an XML-based format)Gilbert Ramirez1-0/+8
to tethereal. It could be added to Ethereal, but the GUI changes to allow the user to select PDML as a print format have not been added. Provide a python module (EtherealXML.py) to help parse PDML. Provide a sample app (msnchat) which uses tethereal and EtherealXML.py to reconstruct MSN Chat sessions from packet capture files. It produces a nice HTML report of the chat sessions. Document tethereal's PDML and EtherealXML.py usage in doc/README.xml-output Update tethereal's manpage to reflect the new [-T pdml|ps|text] option svn path=/trunk/; revision=9180
