Thanks for the comment. We thought it would be OK to just upload the source
code to the Wireshark web page and only temporarily provide the executables
through the INACON web page just as long as our patch is not yet part of the
standard download package.
But if this is a requirement, we will follow your proposal and add the source
code for our patch accordingly. Please advise!
With respect to your question: Our solution consists of two parts: The online
protocol help (content) which is not integrated into the package because of
size constraints etc. and the patch itself which adds a new line upon right
mouse click.
