I am trying to figure out how to do filtering in Tethereal.

I notice that there are 3 locations for specifying a filter according to
the Tethereal man pages.

-f
-R
last parameter to Tethereal

I want to be able to specify that I want to see all traffic for http,
ftp, telnet, and a couple of other protocols. I then want to be able to
see just http.request and http.response.

I don't see too many examples of how to specify filters to the programs.

I know there are packet filters and display filters. How do I specify
each of these to Tethereal?
