Lucent Technologies Ethereal Time stamp format, Savefile, Capture link type, Statistics-string

	Customizing Ethereal
	data for each packet.
-S	This option specifies that Ethereal will display packets as it
	captures them. This is done by capturing in one process and
	displaying them in a separate process. This is the same as "Up-
	date list of packets in real time" in the Capture Options dialog
	box.
-t <time stamp format>	This option sets the format of packet timestamps that are dis-
	played in the packet list window. The format can be one of:
	• r relative, which specifies timestamps are displayed relat-
	ive to the first packet captured.
	• a absolute, which specifies that actual times be displayed
	for all packets.
	• ad absolute with date, which specifies that actual dates
	and times be displayed for all packets.
	• d delta, which specifies that timestamps are relative to the
	previous packet.
-v	The -voption requests Ethereal to print out its version in-
	formation and exit.
-w <savefile>	This option sets the name of the savefile to be used when sav-
	ing a capture file.
-y <capture link type>	If a capture is started from the command line with -k, set the
	data link type to use while capturing packets. The values re-
	ported by -L are the values that can be used.
-z <statistics-string>	Get Ethereal to collect various types of statistics and display
	the result in a window that updates in semi-real time. XXX -
	add more details here!
