I guess the tshark command-line help and man page still needs to be updated
here then?

>From tshark -h:
Input file:
  -r <infile>              set the filename to read from (no stdin!)

>From tshark.html:
-r <infile>

    Read packet data from infile, can be any supported capture file format
(including gzipped files). It's not possible to use named pipes or stdin here!
