2012-11-08editcap does not support the -H and -W options, remove the description ofJeff Morriss1-26/+0
those options (which had been cut-n-paste from the tshark man page). For editcap to support these options it would either need to be linked against libwireshark or the address resolution stuff would need to be moved from libwireshark to, for example, libwsutil. svn path=/trunk/; revision=45975

2011-03-24Add initial pcapng name resolution record support. Wireshark has readGerald Combs1-0/+26
support; TShark has read+write support. Additionally TShark can read a "hosts" file and write those records to a capture file. This uses "struct addrinfo" in many places and probably won't compile on some platforms. svn path=/trunk/; revision=36318

2010-11-16Make editcap -B work like expected: output no packets after the stop time.Sake Blok1-1/+1
Old behavior was to include a packet with a timestamp of 12:00:00.934 if -B "YYYY-MM-DD 12:00:00" was used. svn path=/trunk/; revision=34913

2010-06-02From Jim Young via bug 4331:Gerald Combs1-0/+42
This patch adds a new '-S' option to editcap that will rewrite timestamps of packets to insure that the new capture file is in strict chronological order. This option's primary use case is to fixup the occasional timestamps that have a negative delta time relative to previous packet. This feature is related to (but does not depend on) capinfos enhancement submitted in bug #4315 which helps identify tracefiles with "out-of-order" packets. svn path=/trunk/; revision=33042

Don't use anything on man page references - pod2man handles that. Don't refer to "the capture file format section" of the Wireshark man page, as there's no section explicitly labelled as such; just refer to the beginning of the DESCRIPTION section. svn path=/trunk/; revision=18694

svn path=/trunk/; revision=5922
2002-03-26From Andrew Feren:Guy Harris1-1/+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. svn path=/trunk/; revision=5021

Don't list the version numbers for EtherPeek and TokenPeek - those are file format version numbers, not program version numbers. svn path=/trunk/; revision=4599

2001-12-05Note that Ethereal's and Tethereal's native capture file format isGuy Harris1-15/+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). svn path=/trunk/; revision=4337
