Ethereal 0.8.16 released - Tuesday, March 6, 2001

New dissectors include SUA Light, HCLNFSD, Rquota. Many other dissectors were updated and bug-fixed. The wiretap library can now read Etherpeek files, and write NetMon 2.x files. Capture filters and display filters are kept in separate dialogues/files to help minimize confusion. A new "Decode As" feature allows some run-time configuration of which dissectors are called for a particular packet. You can now click on a byte in the hex dump and the appropriate field in the protocol tree will be selected. The display filter code was re-written, and some syntax changed (esp. for boolean variables).
