kent,

wouldn't a simple value2string tokentable do what you are looking for ?

static const struct tok bpf_dlt_values[] = {
    { DLT_EN10MB,     "Ethernet (10Mb)" },
    { DLT_EN3MB,      "Experimental Ethernet (3Mb)" },
    { DLT_AX25,       "Amateur Radio AX.25" },
    { DLT_PPP,        "Point-to-point Protocol" },
    { DLT_FDDI,       "FDDI" },
    { 0, NULL}
};

what is the reason why you want to create a new DLT_ value ?
