=head1 DESCRIPTION
-B<Text2pcap> is a program that reads in an ASCII hex dump and writes
-the data described into a B<libpcap>-style capture file. B<text2pcap>
-can read hexdumps with multiple packets in them, and build a capture
-file of multiple packets. B<text2pcap> is also capable of generating
-dummy Ethernet, IP and UDP or TCP headers, in order to build fully
-processable packet dumps from hexdumps of application-level data
-only.
