Attached is a small patch to make the dissection of ICMP timestamp requests and replies human readable. Currently, Ethereal displays the raw values from the packet of milliseconds since midnight UTC, for example: 78176394. This patch changes the display of milliseconds to a human readable string, for example: "21 hours, 35 minutes, 48.12 seconds since midnight UTC". It can be tested with "ping -M time <hostname>" on FreeBSD, "ping -T tsonly <hostname>" on Linux, or a time synchronization program such as Tardis 2000 for Windows with the ICMP Timestamp setting.
