Don't use anything on man page references - pod2man handles that.

2002-03-26From Andrew Feren:guy1-1/+1
Man pages don't have any notion of external links and there isn't enough information for pod2html to resolve the links for manpages in the "See Also" section of the man pages. As a result running pod2html generates a bunch of warning messages and just emphasizes/italicizes the text. Therefore, we change the link (L<name>) command to an emphasizes (I<name>) command. The net result is the same, but you don't get the warnings when generating HTML docs. At some point in the future someone might want to do the work to get the links to generate correctly, but until then this will shut up pod2html. git-svn-id: http://anonsvn.wireshark.org/wireshark/trunk@5021 f5534014-38df-0310-8fa8-9805f1628bb7

2002-01-22Fix up various product names and descriptions in the lists of fileguy1-15/+16
formats we can read; include vendor names. We should be able to read TokenPeek captures, as well as captures from the Windows versions of EtherPeek. Don't list the version numbers for EtherPeek and TokenPeek - those are file format version numbers, not program version numbers. git-svn-id: http://anonsvn.wireshark.org/wireshark/trunk@4599 f5534014-38df-0310-8fa8-9805f1628bb7

2001-12-05Note that Ethereal's and Tethereal's native capture file format isguy1-15/+17
libpcap format, and say that it's also used by "other tools" (tcpdump and Ethereal/Tethereal aren't the only tools that write captures in that format). Weaken the claim that we read Etherpeek files to say only that we read Etherpeek versions 5, 6, and 7 for Macintosh, so people don't conclude that we read Etherpeek-for-Windows captures (we don't). git-svn-id: http://anonsvn.wireshark.org/wireshark/trunk@4337 f5534014-38df-0310-8fa8-9805f1628bb7

2001-07-05Don't capitalize the names of programs in the summary lines of man pagesguy1-1/+1
- at least some versions of makewhatis (e.g., the Solaris version) uses that name in a case-sensitive fashion, so you can't do "man ethereal", say, you have to do "man Ethereal", and that doesn't work as the man page file is "ethereal.1", not "Ethereal.1". git-svn-id: http://anonsvn.wireshark.org/wireshark/trunk@3656 f5534014-38df-0310-8fa8-9805f1628bb7

2000-07-26In the final scene of the horror movie, just when you think the monsterguy1-3/+4
is finally dead, and you're walking away, it springs up again and attacks. It appears that the ss990915 version of Alexey Kuznetzov's libpcap patch has some extra stuff in the per-packet header for some sort of SMP debugging, and that SuSE Linux 6.3 picked it up. Thus, even if a libpcap file has the modified magic number, we *still* have to go through the usual heuristic hell to figure out what type of file it is. git-svn-id: http://anonsvn.wireshark.org/wireshark/trunk@2164 f5534014-38df-0310-8fa8-9805f1628bb7

Mayer, and yours truly. git-svn-id: http://anonsvn.wireshark.org/wireshark/trunk@2002 f5534014-38df-0310-8fa8-9805f1628bb7
2000-04-27Add a "-s" flag to editcap, to make it truncate packets to a specifiedguy1-9/+25
snapshot length before writing them to the output file; this may come in handy if you are translating the file to a different format so that it can be read by a program that can't handle packets above a certain size (e.g., the snoop in Solaris 2.5.1 or 2.6, which reject Ethernet packets larger than the Ethernet MTU, and thus can't handle gigabit Ethernet captures using jumbo frames). git-svn-id: http://anonsvn.wireshark.org/wireshark/trunk@1891 f5534014-38df-0310-8fa8-9805f1628bb7
2000-03-07Note that the "-T" flag doesn't cause "editcap" to translate link-layerguy1-1/+7
headers, it just causes it to force the encapsulation type of the output file to the specified type. git-svn-id: http://anonsvn.wireshark.org/wireshark/trunk@1702 f5534014-38df-0310-8fa8-9805f1628bb7
