In this same discussion: is there any way to have tethereal avoid 
presenting much of the lower-layer link stuff?  I'd like to use the 
-V option more, but there is such a volume of data that it makes 
debugging difficult.  I'd like to just see the src/dst IP address, 
and then the payload data in "cooked" form.  I haven't found a way to 
make tethereal less verbose about ethernet, IP, UDP, etc data which 
is really unnecessary when doing protocol debugging and development.
