Not open source = not at all like WireShark, sorry.
And that's a damn shame. I could see a community growing around this kind of thing and adding all kinds of protocol support to it, if only it was open source.
- wirefloss 12y agoNo competition with WireShark is intended. WireEdit is a packet editor, not an analyzer. Can as easily edit a .txt Hex dump of a packet (not yet supported, but easy to do).
- rudolf0 12y agoI will admit that I initially thought this was a Wireshark plugin or related to Wireshark in some fashion, based on the name and the appearance of the GUI on the page. You may want to put a little disclaimer at the top saying it's not associated or competing with Wireshark. Pretty cool tool either way.
- pyre 12y agoDon't know if it was just added, but the front page currently has this on it: Are you competing with Wireshark? No. WireEdit is a packet editor, not an analyzer. No real-time packet capture either.
- wirefloss 12y agoYeh. I added it after the above question was asked. It was asked once, so it obviusly belongs to a FAQ.
- jnazario 12y agoif you're looking for an OSS variant of this (packet editor with a GUI), have a look at Netdude: http://netdude.sourceforge.net/ http://netdude.sourceforge.net/ older package, but does basically this.
