Under Dissection, item 7 added: Add a user scriptable language or perhaps an XML user customizable template to describe a packet format. The script language or XML file would then be interpreted by something in Wireshark or an addon so that a non-programmer could add a dissector or a protocol/data-link format for simpler protocols. For example, if you have a frame with a 34 byte inserted proprietary header between the Ethernet Frame header and the IP header and don't know or care about its contents, you could describe the header as a 34-byte opaque blob without having to code a new dissector in C. --J Small, reachable via Wireshark User List Sound good? --Jim > -----Original Message----- > > Guy, that sounds like an excellent idea.
