Ethereal-dev: [Ethereal-dev] Forget button on TCP stream window

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 This list is no longer active.

From: emre <emre@xxxxxxxxx>

The Forget button appends the negation of the current filter to the previous filter,
processes the filter, and Closes the TCP stream window.

This enables a relatively painless exhaustive examination of multiple TCP stream
content.

e.

ps - as this is my first foray into GTK, i would appreciate any -/+ feedback.
