Re: How to disable lua support from command line ?

@Peter thanks for the advice on lua scripts, but this is something I
can't control on foreign (i.e., user) setups. Also it's convient to
have my lua script loaded automatically, I just don't want them when
running my program.

Why?  Why not just one option to turn them all off?
I leave it up to you really, I just thought that wireshark installs by
default some C module/extensions contrary to lua scripts (none by
default), but I may be wrong, on that point.
Looking forward to that option :)

I am inspired by the www.nixos.org philosophy which ensures
reproducibility by being as explicit as possible. In my case, I try to
specify as much as I can when calling tshark so I am not too worried
about any .config/wireshark/config interference.

For .config/wireshark/preferences not to matter, you'd have to specify everything that's changed from the default.

To sum up, yes. Might make sense to have a flag for lua and another
for C modules or some kind of enum.

Why?  Why not just one option to turn them all off?
