Hi guys

 

This patch adds a new output format for TShark. This format displays
arbitrary fields selected by the user, one line per packet,
user-specified separator and quotes.

 

With some trepidation, I have ignored Gerald's suggestion that it could
be done by modifying only the -Toption, because I want to be able to
specify the separator quite arbitrarily, and can't think of a good way
to wrap that up in one string along with the fields.

 

So the new options look like:

 

-Tfields -Eheader=y -Eseparator=, -Equote=n -e frame.number -e ip.addr
-e udp

 

(-E options controlling format, -e field to print).

If desired, the -Tpdml option could be extended to be controlled by -e
as well.

 

The patch also extends the behaviour of the -c and -a:filesize options.
When reading a capture file, these are now allowed and control how much
of the file is read (e.g. -c128 reads the first 128 packets). This
applies only to TShark, as the code for reading / writing in Wideshark
is more widely distributed and I didn't have the time to analyze it
fully.

 

Cheers

 

Doug
