Or, of course, you could use 'mergecap' to merge the 183 files into one big file.

Not AFAIK. Normally when I have something to do like that I use 'tethereal' and a simple (in my case UNIX) shell loop, something like: 

for f in *.cap; do
    echo "Looking in $f"
    tethereal -r $f -R "my display filter"
done
At least then you can find which of the files has what you're looking for (then maybe you can do a deeper analysis with Ethereal).

Can Ethereal apply a display filter to multiple files at once? I have 183 capture files and want to search them all using a specific display filter. Is there any way to search them all automatically, without having to open each file by myself?
