specified as a single argument (which means that if it contains spaces,
it must be quoted), or can be specified with command-line arguments
after the option arguments, in which case all the arguments after the
filter arguments are treated as a filter expression.
filter arguments are treated as a filter expression. If the filter is
specified with command-line arguments after the option arguments, it's a
capture filter if a capture is being done (i.e., if no B<-r> flag was
specified) and a read filter if a capture file is being read (i.e., if a
B<-r> flag was specified).
