Not in etehreal

from the command line you want to use Tethereal

tethereal will do all this for you.


See the man page for tethereal for the flags to give it to control how
much of the packets are to be expanded  and whether the hex data is to
be printed or not.

tethereal prints the result  as ASCII to the console  so redirect the
output  to a file if you want to save the data.


example :   tethereal -n -r capturefile.cap > output.txt
