Would you agree?
In my opinion it would be great to have the "text2pcap" functionality available from within wireshark as "File | Import". Also nice would be if a text file was just another type of capture file wireshark can read. That way, tshark can also handle text files and there would be no need to seperately maintain the "Import" code and the "text2pcap" code (wihtout losing the ability to convert text files to pcap files on from the cli). Another nice feature on top of this would be to be able to read "NetScreen" snoop dumps without first having to convert them with "netscreen2dump.py". So, yes, I would vote for a "bug for enhancement" :-) (also for your other enhancements concerning packet summary details and reading the timestamps) Cheers, Sake _______________________________________________ Wireshark-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-dev
