The code is general, it is not tied to VoIP analysis. I am writing a function
to plot general diagrams that I hope I can get ready in a while. My idea is, rather
than using it from a specific protocol, calling it from the main window to graph
the displayed packets. The disadvantage there is that you will have no such a thing
as a protocol specific context menu option -like "go to the segment this packet is
acking"-; you will, however, be able to focus the main window on a packet by clicking
on it, and there you can have those options. You will have also general packet information
on the graph, not specific for one protocol level.
The main advantage, of course, is that it should be possible to make graphs of
arbitrary packet combinations. I attach a sample of how it will -I hope- look.
Anyway, using it for something protocol-specific should be quite straightforward -thanks
to Alejandro-.

Francisco
