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.

if you're looking for an OSS variant of this (packet editor with a GUI), have a look at Netdude:

http://netdude.sourceforge.net/

older package, but does basically this.

That sure is what it looks like. But thanks for sharing anyway, interesting project

No 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).

I 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.

Don'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.

Yeh. I added it after the above question was asked. It was asked once, so it obviusly belongs to a FAQ.
