If that's the case, we should also point people to the Docbook tools and indicate that they should install them. Note, though, that we should perhaps distinguish between dissector developers, who don't need to update any documentation when they add a dissector, and tap developers and other developers of features with a user interface (other than a pane in the Preferences dialog), who *should* update the documentation. Then again, perhaps we *should* document the preferences for dissectors in the User's Guide, in which case, if you're going to be contributing your dissector to the Wireshark code base, you should update the documentation as well.... _______________________________________________ Wireshark-dev mailing list Wireshark-dev@wireshark.org http://www.wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-dev
