Commandline Tools Mac OS X

Hi

According to the README in the latest Wireshark.dmg image, the installed should install the command line tools in /Library/Wireshark, but this directory is not even created.

Is there anything I'm missing in the setup process?

The README is wrong. The binaries are in the app bundle for Wireshark, and the installer should, if you've requested the command-line tools, install wrapper scripts in /usr/local/bin that run those binaries. I've checked in a fix for the README, which should be in the next 1.8 and 1.10 releases.
