4 captype - Prints the types of capture files
14 B<Captypes> is a program that opens one or more capture files and
15 prints the capture file type of each E<lt>I<infile>E<gt>.
17 B<Capinfos> is able to detect and read the same capture files that are
18 supported by B<Wireshark>.
19 The input files don't need a specific filename extension; the file
20 format and an optional gzip compression will be automatically detected.
21 Near the beginning of the DESCRIPTION section of wireshark(1) or

23 is a detailed description of the way B<Wireshark> handles this, which is
24 the same way B<Capinfos> handles this.
