== NAME
|
|
|
|
captype - Prints the types of capture files
|
|
|
|
== SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
[manarg]
|
|
*captype*
|
|
[ *-h* ]
|
|
[ *-v* ]
|
|
<__infile__>
|
|
__...__
|
|
|
|
== DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
*Captype* is a program that opens one or more capture files and
|
|
prints the capture file type of each <__infile__>.
|
|
|
|
*Captype* is able to detect and read the same capture files that are
|
|
supported by *Wireshark*.
|
|
The input files don't need a specific filename extension; the file
|
|
format and an optional gzip, zstd or lz4 compression will be automatically detected.
|
|
Near the beginning of the DESCRIPTION section of xref:wireshark.html[wireshark](1) or
|
|
https://www.wireshark.org/docs/man-pages/wireshark.html
|
|
is a detailed description of the way *Wireshark* handles this, which is
|
|
the same way *Captype* handles this.
