tcpdump printout (machine readable vs. human readable)

[Jason Duan <zduan814 () yahoo com>]

Hi,
 
 When I ran "tcpdump -r tcpdump.log", the output is more or less "human readable" but it is not so good for machine 
reading (for example extracting packet size etc). I am not sure if I am missing something in the command line or 
tcpdump does not print in machine readable format. (For example, the route_btoa for BGP updates could print both 
formats.)
 
 Many thanks,
 Jason.
