This however seems like a more valid use case to consider. My question back would be - what "string" should be used by tshark? The "display name" can have some undesirable characters in it from a command line perspective (ie probably require quotes), and the "internal" short name string isn't otherwise exposed for users to learn what is. Should the "short name" be exposed on the tabbed dialog so users can learn it to apply it to a (new) tshark option?
The short name should be used - it’s likely there will be changes to the long descriptive ones, but we can keep the short one whatever it is so it doesn’t break scripts invoking tshark. But yeah, I do think that means it needs to be shown in the tabbed dialog. Also, at some point tshark’s ‘-G’ should be able to dump the list of names as well. -hadriel ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: https://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
