Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Problems while displaying the digits in the packet

Hi,

We're in need for FT_BCD and FT_PACKED_BCD types. I've once started on
them but ended up hacking my own proto_tree_add_packed_bcd() functions.
Still these types would be very nice to have.

Thanx,
Jaap
