To those on the list who use tethereal a lot but does not follow
ethereal-cvs
(i know who you are)

I just checked in a new feature for tethereal i think you will enjoy

-z proto,colinfo,<filter>,<field>

Which can be used to place an arbitrary <field> and its value on the colinfo
line
for all packets matching <filter>.
This option can be used an unlimited number of times on teh command line.

Note: in order for tethereal to be able to extract the <field> value from
the packet, <field> MUST also be part
of the <filter> string.


Example:
in order to get tethereal to put the nfs filehandle hash on colinfo line for
all NFS packets:

-z proto,colinfo,nfs&&nfs.fh.hash,nfs.fh.hash

have fun,
