hi 

i am using _T_ethereal now for a long time, very good work.

i have a wish for a new feature:

when capturing to a file, the programm counts out the captured packets,
but there should a way to verbose that output. (i. e. with -V)
and print out the packets per second and the bytes per second
would be very handy for checking the data-volume of captures

i mean:

tethereal -w /dev/null -V
Capturing on eth0
5669   (200 packets/s ; 150kb/s)

what does you think of this "proposal" ? ;-)

mfg hermann
