Wireshark · Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] tshark -Ttext output

["Rob MacKenzie" <rmackenzie@xxxxxxx>]

Great app, quick question.

I am using tshark as part of a larger program, and I need the packet
summaries from a pcap file.

I am getting the format I need by piping out from

tshark -r myfile.pcap -Ttext > outfile.txt

My questions are:
1: is there no way to get tshark to output not to standard out but to a
file, as the -w option just outputs the pcap file again.

2: The format of the -Ttext output is dertermined by the columns in
Wireshark.  My app needs to run smoothly even if Wireshark is opened and
configuration changed.  Where are these options stored on a windows
machine? On a linux machine?


Thanks for listening, hope somebody can shed some light.
