Hi,

I was wondering why the "proto_tree_add_item" function does not handle
FT_DOUBLE fields.  It looks like I can use proto_tree_add_double(),
but it would be nice if the generic function could decode the type field
so I would not have to check what the type is before adding to the 
proto_tree.  

There is probably something I am missing here.

Also, I was wondering how I distinguish between 32bit floats and 64bit floats.
There is no FT_FLOAT type to use, only FT_DOUBLE. 

Thanks
