That works really well, thanks! Also I like that nowadays you get 2 addresses
per line instead of one long line with all addresses. I added a timeout to limit
the display length, here's a sample:

The elements are sorted by decreasing expiry times, as well as the obvious
changes (1 elemnt per line, nothing else on an element line, display narrowed to
canonical minimal indent, IP addresses resolved where possible).
*** I had expected or at least hoped that an element's expiry would revert to
*** the timeout interval if it was re-added, but this doesn't happen.
Was that possibility discussed on the list previously? Not having it leads to at
least 2 undesirable consequences when watching:
1. Frequently-accessed sites drop off the bottom and re-appear at the top.
The lower part of the display would be more stable if expiry times reverted:
frequently-accessed sites would stay near the top while others would
percolate through.
2. Counters reset when these elements are destroyed and re-created.
Was there a discussion on the list about this (possibility of reverting expiry
times) previously? Would there be much to it? I'm not especially familiar with
the kernel code but, supposing I figured it out, would a patch be acceptable?
IAC I'd be delighted to share the postprocessing software with anyone who's
interested,
Cheers ... Duncan.
