Unfortunately, the closest thing to a design document is the
-"README.developer" document in the "doc" directory of the Ethereal
+"README.developer" document in the "doc" directory of the Wireshark
source tree; however, although that's useful for people adding new

+the "core" of Wireshark.
We have no document describing that; however, a quick summary of the
part of the code you'd probably be working with is:
- for every capture file that Ethereal has open, there's a
- "capture_file" structure - Ethereal currently supports only one

open capture file at a time, and that structure is named
"cfile" (see the "file.h" header file);
that structure has a member "plist", which points to a

points to the first frame, and each frame has a "next" member
