Hi,

I am thinking of adding some statistics routines in Ethereal.

It would be nice also to be able to graph the utilization and other info
from the capure file.

The sorts of things I am thinking of is:

Add functionality that allows each dissect-routine to count the number of
each packet type encountered, and then allow that info to be displayed.

Add a routine that can graph the utilization as each packet is being
processed.

Add routines that allow dissect routines to look for names and add them to
a names table (for filtering) etc.


Regards
