	and saved. It consists of one or more lines, where each line
	has the following format:

	@[<bg RGB(16-bit)>][<fg RGB(16-bit)>]
	The settings from this file are read in at program start and
	written to disk when you press the Save button in the "Color-
	ing Rules" dialog box.

	following are some examples:
	tcp
	udp

	written to disk when you press the Save button in the "En-

ethers	When Ethereal is trying to translate Ethernet hardware ad-
	dresses to names, it consults the files listed in Table A.1,
	“Configuration files and folders overview”. If an address is
	not found in /etc/ethers,		Ethereal	looks in
	$HOME/.ethereal/ethers
	Each line in these files consists of one hardware address and
	name separated by whitespace. The digits of hardware ad-
	dresses are separated by colons (:), dashes (-) or periods(.).
	The following are some examples:
	ff-ff-ff-ff-ff-ff	Broadcast
	c0-00-ff-ff-ff-ff	TR_broadcast
	00.2b.08.93.4b.a1	Freds_machine
	The settings from this file are read in at program start and
	never written by Ethereal.
manuf	Ethereal uses the files listed	in	Table A.1,	“Configuration
	files and folders overview” to translate the first three bytes of
	an Ethernet address into a manufacturers name. This file has
	the same format as the ethers file, except addresses are three
	bytes long.
	An example is:
	00:00:01 Xerox			# XEROX CORPORATION

The settings from this file are read in at program start and never written by Ethereal.
