ngrep strives to provide most of GNU grep's common features, applying them
to the network layer. ngrep is a pcap-aware tool that will allow you to
specify extended regular or hexadecimal expressions to match against data
payloads of packets. It currently recognizes TCP, UDP, and ICMP across
Ethernet, PPP, SLIP, FDDI, Token Ring, and null interfaces, and understands
bpf filter logic in the same fashion as more common packet sniffing tools,
such as tcpdump and snoop.
Changes:
This release includes support for catching screensize changes on BSD-style
OSes, a -p option to turn off promiscuous mode, and compile support for
AIX.
