Thanks!

The AirPcap files and functions should be given more generic names, such
as "main_wireless_toolbar.c" and integrated with other platforms.
There's no reason to limit the ability to set the 802.11 channel et al
to a subset of Windows users.

What is much worse is that without airpcap there is no decoding of wpa/wpa2
psk. This part of the code really should be moved into Wireshark directly.
Are there any other functions (except the capture dialog) that gets lost
when not building with airpcap?

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
