Hi folks.

I have been working to try and add etherpeek support to the wiretap
library.

I have had some limited success. The attached patch can be used to make
wiretap load a Mac etherpeek V7 format file. All data appears to get
loaded. In fact the summary pane shows the TCP packets correctly.
Unfortuantely the lower pane shows a corrupt IEEE 802.3 packet and gets no
further.

If I was getting nothing I would understand that I had messed up. However I
don't understand why the top pane works and the bottom one does not. Can
anyone explain what I have done wrong!

Note I have only just (re)joined the list so forgive me if these problems
are well known.

BTW do *not* apply this patch to the main tree, it is not good enough
quality yet. Assuming I solve the current problem I will resend it when it
is finished (is loads Mac V5 & 6 packets as well.

Cheers

Daniel
