Hello all,

I'm running Ethereal v0.9.1 (gtk+ 1.3.0 glib 1.3.2) on win95. Most of the time when I try to type in info in the filter box at the lower left corner of the screen, what I enter will not appear. I can blind type in the box and hit enter and have the filter work, but it will not show what I have typed. Sometimes it works fine, but most of the time it doesn't. The same thing happens in the filters (capture and display) dialogs from both the edit menu and the capture | start capture. Has anyone else run into this? Does anyone know a way to get it to display the text?

Thanks
Sean


Ive seen the same minor misbehavior, but was able to save a filter anyway.

do: capture, start, filter,

then try different combos of:  new, change, save

I think save, new  may be the answer.
