Hi List!

A few weeks ago, I've asked about a way to display the various directories Ethereal uses.

After first thinking about putting this into the Preferences, which was correctly "rejected" by Guy Harris (thanks again for the detailed info on this topic), I'm know thinking about "enhancing" the current about box and only "showing " the current directories (without a way of changing them).

Today, we have a plain dialog box with the about info and another one showing the plugins.

I could think of changing this into one dialog containing a notebook with the following tabs:

-Ethereal
-Plugins
-Directories
-Authors

... with, of course, the Ethereal tab as default :-)

Or will it be a better idea to have/keep all this in separate dialogs?

Any comments?

Regards, ULFL
