-This directory contains the scripts to build a U3 Pacakge (wirehsark.u3p) that can be loaded onto a U3 device. This will allow Wireshark to be run from any Windows machine the U3 device is plugged into, without having to install Wireshark directly. For more details about U3 devices, see http://www.u3.com/.

The U3 package is basically a zip file with a manifest file (wireshark.u3i), a small utility to manage the shutdown of Wireshark when the device is removed, and the Wireshark application files. The package contains all the standard Wireshark components (e.g. tshark.exe), even though they cannot be directly accessed. However, with a suitable additional script (setting the U3 environment variables), the would meet the "wireshark-as-a-zip" wish.

2) The distribution of the files across the U3 host and U3 device needs to be verified for all protocols.
3) The list of files should be derived from a common source (e.g. nsis/wireshark.nsi)
4) Wireshark does not close down cleanly when a dialog is up.
+5) If Wireshark is uninstalled from the U3 stick, all personal settings are gone. This is unlike the "normal" WS package, but seems to be common for U3 programs. \ No newline at end of file
