How can I choose the same interface when using the tethereal command window?

	tethereal -D

to get a list of the interfaces on which you can capture, and

	tethereal -i {long ugly NT 5.x name for the interface}

or

	tethereal -i {number printed before the ugly name in the "-D" output}

to capture on the interface in question. The second option is there because the names, are, well, really long and ugly and a pain to type.
