Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] [PATCH] Add --display to command line help

From: Stephen Fisher <stephentfisher@xxxxxxxxx>
Date: Wed, 12 Jul 2006 11:35:51 -0700
I have attached a patch to add the X11 --display= option (that GTK 
already handles for us) to the command line help:

>wireshark -h

<snip>

Miscellaneous:
  -h                       display this help and exit
  -v                       display version info and exit
  -o <name>:<value> ...    override preference or recent setting
  --display=DISPLAY        X display to use

(It is within an #ifndef _WIN32)
