-v", or "tshark -v".
--
The Makefiles generated by configure expect that either lynx, links or elinks
is installed. If none of these programs is available, the make process fails:

...
./faq.py >faq.txt.tmp && \
        (( which elinks > /dev/null && elinks -dump -dump-width 72
-no-numbering -no-references < faq.txt.tmp > faq.txt )|| \
         ( which links  > /dev/null && links -width 72 -html-numbered-links 0
-dump               faq.txt.tmp > faq.txt )|| \
         ( which lynx   > /dev/null && lynx -dump -width=72 -nolist -stdin
-force-html          < faq.txt.tmp > faq.txt )  ) && \
        rm -f faq.txt.tmp
gmake[2]: *** [faq.txt] Error 1


configure.in should check for the existence of these programs and abort if none
of them is available.
