the Edit:Preferences dialog also lets you edit GUI preferences. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1425
1999-12-29Changed the protocol tree widget from a GtkTree to a GtkCTree. The two reasonsGilbert Ramirez1-2/+9
I did this: First, Havoc Pennington, in "GTK+/Gnome Application Development", in Appendix seciton A.3.88, recommends using GtkCTree instead of GtkTree because GtkCtree is faster, and GtkTree has limitation on its total row height: since it must fit inside a GdkWindow, it is limited to 32,768 pixels of height. GtkTree is more flexible with regards to the types of widgets that can be placed in the tree, but since we deal only with text, that doesn't matter, at least for now. Secondly, a GtkTree doesn't allow arrow-key navigation (at least as far as I could tell). It always bothered me that the up and down arrow keys worked in the packet list and in the hex dump, but no in the protocol tree. GtkCTree does allow arrow-key navigation. In fact, GtkCTree is a subclass of GtkCList (the packet list widget), so they behave a lot alike. I went ahead and fixed the selection bar which has been bothering Richard for a long time now. :) In the GUI preferences dialogue, you can now set both the packet list selection bar and the protocol tree selection bar to either "browse" or "select" mode. "browse" mode is what you're used to: the arrow keys move an outline of the selection bar, but do not change the selection. "select" mode does change the selection when the arrow keys are pressed. The default behavior is set to "select", which seems more natural for a first-time user. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1393
1999-12-16Put "Ethereal" in boldface everywhere it appears.Guy Harris1-115/+137
Reformat some (source) paragraphs, for the benefit of those with editors that don't wrap lines in the display. Delete some extra "=back" directives. Fix the description of the "Preferences" dialog (it lets you control various preferences, not just print preferences; it's the "Print" tab that lets you control print preferences). svn path=/trunk/; revision=1352
1999-12-16Add a new page to the Preferences notebook: a GUI page. The soleGilbert Ramirez1-0/+8
option right now is the placement of the vertical scrollbars in the 3 panes. (it's one decision; you can't have the placement of the vertical scrollbar in the packet list pane different than the placement in the protocol tree pane, for example). I did this because I find it convenient to have the vertical scrollbars on the *left* side of the text. My mouse cursor is usually expanding and collapsing the protocol tree widgets, and once the protocol tree changes size, I usually have to scroll. I'd rather move my mouse cursor just a few pixels over to find the vertical scrollbar. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1351
1999-12-15Stuart Stanley's ISIS dissection support.Guy Harris1-0/+1

1999-12-12Added Bert Driehuis <driehuis@playbeing.org>'s I4B wiretap moduleGilbert Ramirez1-0/+1
and V.120 decoder. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1304
1999-12-10Jerry Talkington's patch to remove the filter stuff fromGuy Harris1-43/+56
"Edit:Preferences" and put it directly under "Edit:Filters", and to add an "Apply" button to it, which makes the currently selected filter the current filter and applies it to the current capture. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1275
1999-12-07Add Dave Chapeskie's name to the list of contributors.Guy Harris1-1/+2
svn path=/trunk/; revision=1240
1999-12-07James Coe's patch to add SRVLOC and NCP-over-IP support.Guy Harris1-1/+1
svn path=/trunk/; revision=1234
1999-12-06Patch from Jerry Talkington to:Guy Harris1-0/+1
treat CONNECT as an HTTP request; add DELETE and OPTIONS as request names. Make the order of names in the AUTHORS file match that of the man page and the About box. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1231
1999-12-06Add support for saving files in a format other than the one they're inGuy Harris1-1/+4
and other than "libpcap", now that Wiretap can write files other than "libpcap". svn path=/trunk/; revision=1226
1999-12-03Add description of TCP stream prefs.Gerald Combs1-0/+7
svn path=/trunk/; revision=1186
1999-11-30Allow the user to save either all of the current capture, or only theGuy Harris1-3/+12
packets that are currently being displayed from that capture. Centralize the code to control whether "File:Save" and "File:Save As" are enabled (and *always* have "File:Save As" enabled if you have a capture; "File:Save" is enabled only if you have a live capture you've not yet saved, although it does the same thing as "File:Save As"). Have the "save_file" member of a "capture_file" structure represent *only* the file currently being *written* to by a capture, and, if there is no capture currently in progress, have it be NULL; the name of the file currently being *displayed" is in the "filename" member, and an "is_tempfile" member indicates whether it's a temporary file for a live capture or not. Have "close_cap_file()" delete the current capture file if it's a temporary capture file that hasn't been saved (in its entirety - saving selected frames doesn't count). Do the same (if there *is* a current capture file) when exiting. The "Ready to load or capture" message is the only statusbar message in the "main" context; "close_cap_file()" should never pop it, it should only pop whatever message exists in the "file" context, and thus has no need to take, as an argument, the context for the message it should pop. Update the man page to reflect the new behavior of "File:Save" and "File:Save As", and to reflect recent changes to "Display:Match Selected". svn path=/trunk/; revision=1170
1999-11-29Change Olivier's e-mail address.Gilbert Ramirez1-1/+1
svn path=/trunk/; revision=1158
1999-11-29Note that we can now read files from Sun's "atmsnoop", which is aGuy Harris1-12/+13
version of "snoop" that apparently comes with Sun's ATM software and that supports ATM. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1148
1999-11-23Move to version 0.7.8.Gilbert Ramirez1-0/+1
Document changes in this version. Add Greg to ever-growing list of authors (he was in AUTHORS, but not in manpage nor in main.c) svn path=/trunk/; revision=1097
1999-11-22Document the new "Reset" button.Guy Harris1-0/+2
svn path=/trunk/; revision=1092
1999-11-21Enable IPX network name resolution by providing for an /etc/ipxnetsGilbert Ramirez1-2/+23
and a $HOME/.ethereal/ipxnets file. get_ipxnet_name() and other functions, similar to get_ether_name() and friends, have been added. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1085
1999-11-20Ugg. Pod format needs a blank line after a =head1 line.Gilbert Ramirez1-0/+1
svn path=/trunk/; revision=1075
1999-11-20The resolve routines accept HW addresses in the ethers file with eitherGilbert Ramirez1-0/+5
dashes or colons as punctuation. Added period as a valid separator, to make the resolve routines congruent with the display filter syntax options. Document the fact that both /etc/ethers and $HOME/.ethereal/ethers are used for resolving hardware address names. I did not know this until I discovered it in resolv.c! svn path=/trunk/; revision=1074
1999-11-17Heikki Vatiainen's SAP (Session Announcement Protocol) dissector.Guy Harris1-0/+1
Rename the dissector for the Netware SAP protocol to "dissect_ipxsap()", so as to keep its name from colliding with that of the dissector for the Session Announcement Protocol. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1046
1999-11-15Add "class" that understands IPv4 addresses and subnet masks.Gilbert Ramirez1-0/+19
We now store IPv4 addresses in host order, allowing non-equivalence comparisons. That is, display filters with lt, le, gt, and ge will work on big-endian and little-endian machines. CIDR notation is now supported for IPv4 addresses in display filters. You can test to see if an IPv4 address is on a certain subnet by using this notation. For example, to test for IPv4 packets on a Class-C network: ip.addr == 192.168.1.0/24 svn path=/trunk/; revision=1032
1999-11-11Change my e-mail address to the forwarding address my *alma mater*Guy Harris1-1/+1
provides. "Every problem in computer science can be solved by adding a layer of indirection." svn path=/trunk/; revision=1008
1999-11-08Add a "Go To Frame" menu item, which lets you go to a frame by frameGuy Harris1-0/+4
number. svn path=/trunk/; revision=990
1999-11-06Add a "Find Frame" menu item under "Display"; it lets you use a displayGuy Harris1-0/+6
filter to search forward or backward in the list of displayed frames for a matching frame. When filtering the display, readjust the display to show the "current" frame if it passed the display filter. When a file is read in, the first frame becomes the "current" frame; when a frame is selected, it becomes the "current" frame, and remains so *even if you unselect it*, until another frame is selected. Select the first frame when a file is read in. Disable most of the "Display" and "Tools" menu items if there's no current capture file, and enable the relevant ones if there is. svn path=/trunk/; revision=983
