Previously, the "start-time" command-line argument of the tcpslice utility was parsed incorrectly. As a consequence, the utility produced error messages every time the command-line argument was used. With this update, the "start-time" command-line argument is parsed correctly, and an error message is displayed only if "start-time" is defined in an incorrect format.
