Note: most of us must first get a copy of the make-tapreg-dotc script in
order to compile Ethereal, as it wasn't in the patch that was sent out.
:-)

Sorry about that. I will provide a new patch tonight that includes this file.

I have followed the other discussions on how to change the registration even further. I would not have any objections if someone would later change the tap registration thing for tethereal and ethereal to become
more like you discuss it.

I plan to add a similar registration routine with a similar API to register to gtk/gtk2 ethereal as well with will also add the appropriate menu items as well.

Feel free to change/enhance it as you wish.
