Fixed the bug about the dialog text.Shouldn't "Save As" be allowed to save over an existing file? It throws the following error: "Can't save over current capture file: [etherXXX...]", where etherXXX is the name of a temporary file, not the file i actually want to save over.
(built from last nightly CVS, Windows2000, GLib2.2.1, GTK+1.3) best regards, Lars Ruoff
In an ideal world, it would ask the user when detecting this: "Do you want to overwrite existing file?" YES/NO/CANCEL or such.
The problem is: the current save mechanism (in file.c) is very monolithic. Theres no easy way to achieve the behaviour I described.
So, I wouldn't overwrite an existing file, without asking the user first about this. As this isn't easily possible, it won't be a good idea to simply
overwrite without any confirmation, as unintended data loss might occur.
The file.c mechanisms should be redesigned IHMO, but don't expect changes too soon on this.
