Hi,
Carefull here. You suggest to prune the list if captures aren't found. What
happens when captures are on a network share you forgot to mount? Then your
list would be gone, while you did not intend to have them pruned.
Thanx,
Jaap

However, a basic news panel *might* be useful. Problem here: for example
you won't get freshly developed features if you are using the WS release
versions. I currently don't see a good way to handle these problems, but
this might be a future thing to think about.
BTW: There are also lot's of people that pretty much dislike those
"chatty" programs at all.
The core difference would be that it would not create a pop up window but
just diplay in some area of the window. What really annoys me about these
startup tips is, that they force me to do an extra mousemovement and click.
Something like: "New in this version" and "New in last version" would be
much more acceptable if it was displayed just like the other information
on that welcome page.
Open recent should only display files that exist instead of displaying
"not found" after the name.
7) Since Wireshark is hosted by CACE, maybe they'd like to plug their
site? WiresharkU?
I strongly oppose *any* advertisements on the Wireshark user interface,
be it for CACE, WiresharkU or anything else. The day I see
advertisements on the Wireshark GUI, I will stop immediately to work on
it any further - or maybe I would start a project fork!!! We are talking
about an open source program here - I really, really don't like to see
it to become adware!
I don't feel quite that strongly about it, but I'm very much set against
it as well.
Ciao
