The output of tshark, with the "-w" flag, isn't text, so you should
probably pick a different suffix such as ".pcap". (I don't know whether
scp was being "clever" and translating LF on UN*X to CR/LF on Windows,
as per Sake Blok's comment and your response, but, if it was, perhaps
calling the file "sniff.pcap" would avoid that. It'd also probably
avoid Windows starting up Notepad or Wordpad or whatever on the file
when you try to open it - *that* wouldn't work very well.)
