2023-11-10Remove README.windows.Gerald Combs1-1/+2
It was a placeholder that pointed people at the download page and the documentation page. There are plenty of references to those elsewhere.

2020-10-02Clean up URLs.Guy Harris1-1/+1
Add ui/urls.h to define some URLs on various of our websites. Use the GitLab URL for the wiki. Add a macro to generate wiki URLs. Update wiki URLs in comments etc. Use the #defined URL for the docs page in WelcomePage::on_helpLabel_clicked; that removes the last user of topic_online_url(), so get rid of it and swallow it up into topic_action_url().

2018-03-26CMake: Add an rpm-package target.Gerald Combs1-1/+7
Copy the current wireshark.spec.in and update it for use with CMake. Remove the Qt4, GTK+2, and GTK+3 options. Add Ninja and mmdbresolve options. The rpm-package target builds a tarball using git-export-release.sh and therefore must be run from a git checkout. The RPM _prefix macro is set to CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX, so you'll probably want to run cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr ...

Rename osx-app.sh to osx-app.sh.in and add the version to the plugin path at configure time. Instead up updating Autotools accordingly just remove the macOS packaging targets. gf61c381b5a removed support for Autotools in osx-app.sh and if anyone wants to build macOS packages I'd prefer that they use the same toolchain as the buildbot.

Remove the svr4-package and solaris-package targets along with their associated files and directories. We used to use this to build Solaris packages but we haven't shipped those in years. Given that the last substantive change to packaging/svr4 was in 2008 it's likely that this has been unused for a while.

2017-08-15Convert README to README.md.Gerald Combs1-1/+1
Convert the contents of the top-level README to Markdown and give it a .md extension. Most of our documentation is plain text or AsciiDoc, but the top-level README file in a Git repository is special in that many online browsers will show the README contents along with the directory listing and those browsers tend to favor Markdown. This is true of GitHub (which we're currently mirroring to), Gerrit via its Gitiles plugin (which we're not yet using but likely will), and other places. Add "foreign" to AM_INIT_AUTOMAKE. There is probably a joke to be made here about the FSF and border walls.
