I assume you want to do this in some piece of software (it's obvious how
*you'd* read them, the question is how would a *program* do so).

If so, then there's really no good way to do that.  However, you could
save the packet dissection as PDML or PSML, or use Tethereal to generate
PDML (or PSML, in the upcoming release), and have a program or script
parse that.
