Getting started
---------------
This text will try to take you though the first steps of using Ethereal.


Display
-------
When you start Ethereal, you will see the program window vertically divided into the following parts:

-window title
-menu
-main toolbar
-packet list    (empty)
-packet details (empty)
-packet bytes   (empty)
-statusbar      (with filter toolbar)


I'd probably say "status bar".
Well, that's odd! Why using "status bar" but "toolbar"? Is there any reason behind this? 
I had a short look at the GNOME HIG, and they name it exactly that way.


Lots of the features available in the menu will also be on the main toolbar.


I might say "Many of the features available".

Changed this.
