* Rename doc/README.Win32.md to doc/README.windows.md.Guy Harris2023-05-261-0/+0
| | | | | | | | | | This gives it a name similar to the other README.{operatingsystem} files. It also reflects that 1) 16-bit Windows is now so old and tired that there's no need to use a name that specifically mentions a non-16-bit version of Windows to indicates that we don't support it and 2) there's now 64-bit Windows, so "Win32" is an out-of-date name.
* doc: Update Haiku particulars. [skip ci]Denis Ovsienko2023-02-251-1/+18
| | | | | Do not suggest installing the system libpcap_devel package as a build dependency, add a section for the 32-bit version.
* README.haiku.md: we now require the latest Clang version. [skip ci]Guy Harris2023-02-151-1/+6

* The new home of Npcap is npcap.com, not npcap.org.Guy Harris2022-01-061-1/+1
| | | | | | (npcap.org redirects there.) [skip ci]
* Replace README.capture-module with a web page. [skip ci]Denis Ovsienko2021-12-291-351/+1
| | | | | | Remove the file from EXTRA_DIST, but keep it for a while longer to point to the new location (at least chapter 8.1 in Wireshark Developer's Guide still uses the old URL).
* Remove doc/DLT_ALLOCATE_HOWTO.md. [skip ci]Denis Ovsienko2021-12-172-32/+2
| | | | This document has been merged into tcpdump-htdocs.
* Declutter the documentation a bit. [skip ci]Denis Ovsienko2021-11-291-49/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | The following operating systems are either extinct or not supported or otherwise have been out of contact with libpcap code for many years: UnixWare, SCO UNIX, SINIX, NeXTSTEP, {DEC OSF/1, Digital UNIX, Tru64 UNIX}, Ultrix, SunOS < 5.3.2, Linux < 2.6.27 and older AIX. Remove respective prose from the installation documentation, as well as the passage about counterfeit tcpdump 3.0.3, which is a common wisdom nowadays. Update the remaining HP-UX section for C99.
* doc: Refine Markdown in DLT_ALLOCATE_HOWTO.md. [skip ci]Denis Ovsienko2021-11-031-17/+16

| | | | Document more exemptions for Solaris 11.
* doc: Say INSTALL.md, not INSTALL.txt. [skip ci]Denis Ovsienko2021-08-153-3/+3
|
* Rename a file back after commit 82001f3. [skip ci]Denis Ovsienko2021-02-051-0/+0
| | | | | | README.linux is a plain text file, rendering it as Markdown produces unreadable results. When and if someone converts it to a proper Markdown, it will be appropriate to rename the file again.
* Fix some spelling. [skip ci]Denis Ovsienko2020-10-092-3/+3

* Fixup some URLs in the comments.Denis Ovsienko2020-08-021-1/+1
| | | | [skip ci]
* Update to reflect current reality.Guy Harris2020-02-181-76/+4
| | | | | | | [skip ci] We require Linux 2.6.27 or later, and the only configuration option that applies is CONFIG_PACKET_MMAP, which we require on 2.6.x kernels - 3.x and later kernels have memory-mapped capture support built in.

* Remove the cmd.exe prompt from the choco commands.Guy Harris2019-10-291-3/+3
| | | | | | | It's clearer just to give the commands, as we do for running CMake and msbuild in a command-line build. [skip ci]
* Add Visual Studio 2017 information.Guy Harris2019-10-291-6/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Also: Indicate the name of the components to install to get CMake. Indicate how to build libpcap from Visual Studio once CMake has finished successfully. Clean up some VS 2019 stuff. [skip ci]
* Use two-space indents for URLs separated from the surrounding text.Guy Harris2019-10-281-8/+8
| | | | | | The two spaces separate it from the text if you read the file as plain text, and it doesn't cause the URL to be displayed as raw non-link fixed-width text when it's formatte as Markdown.
* Indent isolated URLs with spaces, not tabs.Guy Harris2019-10-281-8/+8
| | | | | Markdown will show them as fixed-width un-clickable text if indented with tabs, but will show them as indented links if indented with spaces.
* Add some information on setting up the build environment on Windows.Guy Harris2019-10-281-2/+152
| | | | | | This is based on testing with Visual Studio 2019 on Windows 10; more information should be added for Visual Studio 2017 and Visual Studio 2015.

* Add the first cut of a "how to write a libpcap module" document.Guy Harris2019-01-051-0/+353
| | | | | | | | This is a work in progress, and needs to be completed, but I want something I can point a section in the Wireshark Developer's Guide to, and to at least *start* providing help for module writers. XXX - do this in Markdown?
* Update README.dagMatt Eaton2018-09-111-2/+2
| | | Fixed a few minor typos while reading through the DAG documentation.
