Hm, okay.
I guess I'm creating a script then :-)

Hi. How can i setup a filter that will only display the packets as ASCII text, and not as a hex dump/etc which i get in addition when using -x ?


You can't, unless by "filter" you mean "program or script to which you pipe the output of Tethereal" - capture filters merely limit which packets are seen, and display/read filters merely limit which packets are processed.
