The beginning main() function is in gtk/main.c. I believe I just built
my MSVC++ 2005 EE project out of the whole Wireshark folder. You also
have to configure the command-line compliation commands (nmake -f
Makefile.nmake basically). See the Developer's Guide for more details
(http://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html_chunked/).
