+ngrep strives to provide most of GNU grep's common features, applying
+them to the network layer.
+
+ngrep a pcap-aware tool that will allow you to specify extended
+regular expressions to match against data payloads of packets. It
+currently recognizes TCP and UDP across ethernet, ppp and slip
+interfaces, and understands bpf filter logic in the same fashion
+as more common packet sniffing tools, like tcpdump and snoop.
