Note that Ethereal's and Tethereal's native capture file format is

libpcap format, and say that it's also used by "other tools" (tcpdump
and Ethereal/Tethereal aren't the only tools that write captures in that
format).

Weaken the claim that we read Etherpeek files to say only that we read
Etherpeek versions 5, 6, and 7 for Macintosh, so people don't conclude
that we read Etherpeek-for-Windows captures (we don't).

 B<Editcap> is a program that reads a saved capture file and writes some
 or all of the packets in that capture file to another capture file. 
 B<Editcap> knows how to read B<libpcap> capture files, including those
-of B<tcpdump>.  In addition, B<Editcap> can read capture files from
-B<snoop> (including B<Shomiti>) and B<atmsnoop>, B<LanAlyzer>,
-B<Sniffer> (compressed or uncompressed), Microsoft B<Network Monitor>,
-AIX's B<iptrace>, B<NetXray>, B<Sniffer Pro>, B<Etherpeek>, B<RADCOM>'s
-WAN/LAN analyzer, B<Lucent/Ascend> router debug output, HP-UX's
-B<nettl>, the dump output from B<Toshiba's> ISDN routers, the output
-from B<i4btrace> from the ISDN4BSD project, the output in B<IPLog>
-format from the Cisco Secure Intrusion Detection System, B<pppd logs>
-(pppdump format), the output from VMS's B<TCPIPtrace> utility, the text
-output from the B<DBS Etherwatch> VMS utility, and traffic capture files
-from Visual Networks' software.  There is no need to tell B<Editcap>
-what type of file you are reading; it will determine the file type by
-itself.  B<Editcap> is also capable of reading any of these file formats
-if they are compressed using gzip.  B<Editcap> recognizes this directly
-from the file; the '.gz' extension is not required for this purpose.
