tcpdump as an inferior Perl process


Hi JAPHs,

Can anyone recomend any Perl modules for parsing packets emited by
tcpdump with its -w param?  I wish to be able to inspect the payload
data as well as packet header data (at both ip and ether levels).

I also want to be able to stream info out to multiple files.  If I can't
run Perl fast enough to read from -, I can always post-process a file.
I would prefer to read from tcpdump's file handle though.

My first use of this will be to record shoutcast streams.  iTunes is
missing a record feature for shoutcast and icecast streams.

TIA

PS, no, I don't quite know what I am doing yet.
