Wireshark · Ethereal-dev: Re: [Ethereal-dev] Problem in linking the files

[Gilbert Ramirez <gilbertr@xxxxxxxxx>]

You can't. Wiretap is a library for reading/writing bytes to a file.
It has no idea about columns in ethereal or tethereal. If you are
trying to display information in the columns, then it sounds like you
should be developing or modifying a dissector, not a wiretap module.
