Steve,
Having studied the code some more, this looks reasonable. My plan is to
leave the existing interface intact, and add a new extended
stats_tree_register_ex that takes an array of column names and a
callback function to write column data to a buffer for use by the
underlying gtk and tshark presentation code.
Thanks,
Andy
