@c capitolo primo

tcpick is a textmode sniffer libpcap-based that can track tcp streams 
and saves the captured data in files or displays them in the terminal. 
Useful for picking files in a passive way. 
It can store all connections data in different files, or it can display all
the stream on the terminal, when the connection is closed. 
There are useful display modes like hexdump, hexdump + ascii, 
only printable charachters, raw mode and so on. Available a color mode too,
helpful to read better the output of the program.
Actually it can handle eth and ppp interfaces.
It is useful to keep track of what users of a network are doing, and is
usable with textmode tools like grep, sed, awk. 

For example, this command displays all HTTP GET requests: 

@example
# tcpick -i ppp0 -yP | grep GET
@end example

Please read the manpage for further details.
