idl2wrs dissector shows byte sequence as ASCII string, if the content is binary
it displays a point and it is impossible to see the value. Former Ethereal
dissector did show as an byte array.

Example :

ecs Dissector Using GIOP API
    S_time_sec = 1226940080
    S_time_usec = 784710
    Enum value = 0 (E_type_no_iri)
    S_num = 1
    S_i_num_itrans = 0
    Enum value = 21 (E_type_num_ASCII)
    S_i_num_nature = 2
    S_i_num_plan = 0
    S_i_num_odd_even = 1
    S_i_num_ni = 0
    S_i_num_inn = 0
    S_i_num_spare1 = 0
    S_i_num_spare2 = 0
    S_i_num_adprei = 0
    S_i_num_screening = 0
    S_i_num_num (34) = sip:+33842211008@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    S_date_asn1_year = 2008
    S_date_asn1_month = 11
    S_date_asn1_day = 17
    S_date_asn1_hour = 18
    S_date_asn1_minute = 8
    S_date_asn1_second = 29
    S_date_asn1_millisec = 887
    S_date_asn1_mindiff = 0
    S_date_asn1_utc = 1
    S_ip_address = 1
    Enum value = 0 (E_version_ip_v4)
    Seq length of S_i_ip_address_address = 4
    S_i_ip_address_address: ...L  <<<<<<<<<<<<========== byte sequence
    S_i_ip_address_port = 0
    S_i_assignment = 1
    Enum value = 0 (E_assignment_notKnown)
    Seq length of cin = 3
    cin: ..L  <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<==== byte sequence
    Seq length of buffer = 1319
