IPv6 Reduction

The combined IPv6/IPv4 engine that Qt now uses has shown to be very unreliable for Packet Sender's IPv4's persistent connections. Packet Sender's IPv6 bindings have been reduced until a better solution can be found.

Packet Sender with new UI and Persistent Connections

This is the first full release of Packet Sender that supports the new splitter-based UI and persistent connections. Enjoy!

• Persistent Connections!
• Modern split UI!
• Menu system

Persistent Connections and UI update 2

This pre-release fixes some of the problems found while testing the new split-window version of the Packet Sender UI.

• Search now searches saved packets only
• Search now searches ports and IP addresses
• About menu has been cleaned up
• Fixed import UI quirk

Next release should be a full formal release

Persistent Connections and UI update

• Packet Sender has abandoned the tabbed interface for a more modern draggable splitter. The packets and traffic log can now be viewed at the same time.
• Packet Sender finally has support for persistent connections! This feature is experimental, which is why this release is alpha-only (and just the portable version).
• Settings and About are moved to menu items.
• Some under-the-hood updates. Traffic log is a little faster. Packet Sender can now consume more bytes per request.

Now with Portable Support!

• Just download the pre-staged zipped version, and you are good to go! Packet Sender looks in its run-time directory for packets.ini and ps_settings.ini before looking in default.
• Read contents of a file from the command line to send.
• Save traffic log (tab-delineated).
