Hello. Lisa Redekop here.

I am trying to compile ethereal on windows NT with MSDev.
I compiled it at the command line with nmake and all went 
well, except for when I ran ethereal and read in a file
of already captured packets it went extremely slow!
(maybe a minute).
I also have the compiled version of ethereal on Windows NT
and opened the same file and it went much faster.

I am also trying to compile ethereal from the MSDEV 
gui. PROBLEM: wtap.h uses a struct called timeval which is 
defined in sys/time.h (which i don't have). Maybe one of you
might know why this was not a problem when compiling with 
nmake but from the GUI it is. 

Thank you for your time.
