Hello Stig,

(In reply to comment #8)

I will modify it.
Keep in mind that my GTK skills are far below what is needed here, I did most
of it with copy+paste+curse+change+backout+copy+paste+sighrelieved.

Will take it into account.

Would be nicest.

See the 2nd comment of 1.

> 5. I get this warning when closing the preferences:
> (wireshark:71435): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_destroy: assertion
> `GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed

I didn't see but will keep an eye on it.
