Unfortunately, no.  There should probably be a flag to suppress the 
printing of the results of packet dissection; I don't know whether the 
existing "-q" flag should also do that or not - one could argue that 
suppressing that is different from suppressing the count of packets 
captured, and therefore that a new flag would be a good idea, but I 
could see "-q" used for that.
