Hello,

the following works with wireshark but not qtshark:

jmayer@egg:~/work/wireshark/git(review/gerald_combs/wsug-intro-asciidoc)> qtshark -i wlan0 -k
FIX: packet list heading menu sensitivity
08:51:34.953  Dbg  plugin_dir: lib/wireshark/plugins/1.99.0
08:51:35.010 Main Dbg  Translator en_US

Usage: wireshark [options] ... [ <infile> ]

Capture interface:
  -i <interface>           name or idx of interface (def: first non-loopback)
  -f <capture filter>      packet filter in libpcap filter syntax
  -s <snaplen>             packet snapshot length (def: 65535)
  -p                       don't capture in promiscuous mode
  -k                       start capturing immediately (def: do nothing)
  -Q                       quit Wireshark after capturing
  -S                       update packet display when new packets are captured
  -l                       turn on automatic scrolling while -S is in use
  -B <buffer size>         size of kernel buffer (def: 2MB)
  -y <link type>           link layer type (def: first appropriate)
  -D                       print list of interfaces and exit
  -L                       print list of link-layer types of iface and exit

Capture stop conditions:
  -c <packet count>        stop after n packets (def: infinite)
  -a <autostop cond.> ...  duration:NUM - stop after NUM seconds
                           filesize:NUM - stop this file after NUM KB
                              files:NUM - stop after NUM files
Capture output:
  -b <ringbuffer opt.> ... duration:NUM - switch to next file after NUM secs
                           filesize:NUM - switch to next file after NUM KB
[...]

I someone willing to take a look at this?

Thanks
  Jörg
