Ethereal-dev: [Ethereal-dev] patch: correct help menu and display

Note: This archive is from the project's previous web site, ethereal.com. This list is no longer active.

Hi,
   Here is a patch to make the help display show correct information....

The "Help" menu is now no longuer at the far right side, but is just
the rightmost menu entry, the way it is for all recent programs.

The "Protocol" display mentions the number of entries and it now has
3 columns, starting with the one that was used to sort this list.

The "Display Filters" display mentions the number of fields for each
protocol and at the end the total number of fields.  Further, there
are now 4 columns, including the 'blurb'.

And, of course, all fields are now listed with the correct protocol!

Please apply this patch.

Thanks.
