    Extcap Capture Interface
    
     Extcap is a plugin interface, which allows for the usage
     of external capture interfaces via pipes using a predefined
     configuration language which results in a graphical gui.
    
     This implementation seeks for a generic implementation,
     which results in a seamless integration with the current
     system, and does add all external interfaces as simple
     interfaces.
    
     Windows Note: Due to limitations with GTK and Windows,
     a gspawn-winXX-helper.exe, respective gspawn-winXX-helper-console.exe
     is needed, which is part of any GTK windows installation.
    
     The default installation directory from the build is an extcap
     subdirectory underneath the run directory. The folder used by
     extcap may be viewed in the folders tab of the about dialog.
    
     The default installation directory for extcap plugins with
     a pre-build or installer version of wireshark is the extcap
     subdirectory underneath the main wireshark directory.
    
     For more information see:

      bug #9009
    
     Also take a look in doc/extcap_example.py for a Python-example
     and in extcap.pod for the arguments grammer.
    
     Todo:
       - Integrate with Qt - currently no GUI is generated, but
         the interfaces are still usable
