I mean:

Instead of giving it a fixed 2ms time window to look for duplicates
make that a parameterizable value.

 Plus, argument parameters are one letter only and the letter "i" is
already used (for (i)nterface), the "w" is taken too (for
(w)ritefile). I'd add this param/feature as a "W" for duplicate time
(W)indow.

e.g.
$ dumpcap ... -d -W 15
for 15ms

Good work, This is a very useful feature IMHO.
