Wireshark · Ethereal-dev: Re: [Ethereal-dev] PATCH - Allow editcap to report # of packets in file

[Ian Schorr <ethereal@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Is there any reason why this wasn't checked in when first submitted?  
Since it wasn't rejected I'm guessing it was overlooked.

I'm reviewing it now.

Personally, I'm not so much interested in a splitcap that will allow me 
to split based on IP address, tcp port, etc (I'd rather use 
tethereal+display filters which is a LOT more powerful), I'm interested 
in a utility that will allow me to split based on time interval (which 
this does), on size in # of packets or in # of bytes (which this 
doesn't do), into a fixed number of captures, etc.

I'm thinking about updating the original code, adding additional 
splitting features and resubmitting.  ...Unless you want to do this, 
Graeme?
