The man page has basic inconsistency at places, especially in the AUTHORS
section such are incorrect spacing, missing names, wrong orders, usernames,
XXXXXX and names used interchangeably. This makes the man page look unofficial.
I wish to solve this issue by contributing myself to wireshark. Please verify
this issue and allow me.
Thanks!
