I see that you already updated the man pages.  I'll be
sure to get them next time.  The file visual.h has
the wrong email address for gram.  Sorry.

The product that creates these files is Visual UpTime.  It
is a WAN monitoring tool that uses probes embedded in DSUs.
"Visual Networks Visual UpTime" looks a bit clunky, so I
just used "Visual Networks traffic capture" for the
description the file.c table.

And the manual pages for Ethereal, Tethereal, editcap, and mergecap need to
be updated, as does the README file, as they enumerate the capture file
formats that can be read (and, in some cases, also enumerate those that can
be written).

I just referred to it as the format from "Visual Networks' software"; which
of your products can write traffic capture files?
