* Sun Jul 02 2023 mardnhAATTgmx.de- Update to version 3.7 Changes since 2.0: general
* added support for trace files with nanosecond resolution.
* updated manual pages.

* added initial python testing framework for Linux systems. bittwist (generator):
* 30% speed up when sending large pcap file.
* fixed linerate throttling.
* updated -p option to send packets at set packets per second (pps).
* added -t option to set inter-packet gap (this was previously - p option).
* removed speed (-m) flag; use -p/-r to shape throughput.
* updated linerate (-r) flag to use token bucket algorithm. bittwiste (editor)

* added option to set uniformly distributed random number (mersenne twister). for tcp/udp source/destination port and tcp sequence/acknowledgment number.
* added -N flag to duplicate packets from trace file, e.g. - N 100000 to repeat packets from trace file for 100,000 times
* added ip6tcp and ip6udp templates.
* updated -I flag to allow loading trace file from built-in templates.
* options to edit IPv4/IPv6 packets to allow testing of classification/queuing. features of switches/routers, e.g. + -T ip -e 3 to indicate congestion to the end hosts + -T ip6 -c 16 to classify packet for operation and management of the network + -T ip6 -f 0xfffff to set custom flow label
