HI!                                                                   
Now that I can compile and that I read DOCs and had a look            
to the source I think it's time to begin to write something.          
I'm thinking about one of those fonctions that are following.         
(I would like to know which one would be the easiest to write).       
                                                                      
                                                                      
                                                                      
-The ability to set up "Alarm filters", which run a command or play a 
sound when a match is found.                                          
                                                                      
-Icons for each tree view entry.                                      
                                                                      
-The ability to generate real-time graphs of packet sizes, types of   
data, response times, etc. Output should be in ASCII (data dump), GIF,
or PostScript(R). Perhaps something similar to tcptrace?              
                                                                      
-Selecting Edit/Copy should copy packet data into the copy buffer.    
                                                                      
-Save window size & configuration to a prefs file.                    
                                                                      
-The ability to delete packets in the packet list.                    
                                                                      
                                                                      
                                                                      
Or tell me if you've got an idea for an easy fonction to do.          
                                                                      
Thanks for your help.                                                 
                                                                      
Guillaume.
