  Modified files:
    doc                  ethereal.pod.template 
  Log:
  The resolve routines accept HW addresses in the ethers file with either
  dashes or colons as punctuation. Added period as a valid separator, to make
  the resolve routines congruent with the display filter syntax options.
  
  Document the fact that both /etc/ethers and $HOME/.ethereal/ethers are
  used for resolving hardware address names. I did not know this until
  I discovered it in resolv.c!
