Hi,

Using tshark I am able to only capture packets matching a certain display
filter (-R option). This is very useful when I want to capture specific
information over a long period of time on a high-traffic network.

Isn't this possible in wireshark? If it isn't, why not? Capture filters
are useful, but display filters can be so much more specific.
