Use a real minus sign, don't just
copy/paste from a manual.
I'm not sure which manual that is, but
the page at
http://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html/ currently
has, in section 2.2.7, a real minus sign:
nmake -f Makefile.nmake
verify_tools
which, if I run "pbpaste | od -bc", shows:
0000000 040 156 155 141 153 145 040 055 146 040 115 141 153 145 146 151
n m a k e - f M a k e f i 0000020 154 145 056 156 155 141 153
145 040 166 145 162 151 146 171 137
l e . n m a k e v e r i f y _
0000040 164 157 157 154 163
t o o l s which shows a real hyphen
there. The same is true of
http://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html_chunked/ChSetupWin32.html#ChToolsWin32Verify
If Yuyin was copying and pasting from one of those documents, I hope
neither whatever browser was showing that page nor cmd.exe was "helpfully" translating the minus sign to some other character. Hi, So we can conclude these sources are in order. That's good, otherwise we would have seen more reports, I expect. But then he never told us how he got the command (from what source), and how it was entered (in what terminal). Other dealings with dash, en-dash, em-dash, hyphens, etc. has shown this to be a likely cause, so it sounds like a plausible reason for his problem. Thanks, Jaap
