Hi list,

If we have a TCP connection transporting a lot of binary data we run into
problems when the user asks to "Follow TCP stream". The virtually endless
row of dots and symbols doesn't provide a line break, so GTK will
eventually barf at it, hence bug 852.
Question is what is a proper way to handle/force line breaks in continuous
binary data?

Thanx,
Jaap
