+BPF based visual packet rate monitor.
+While tcpdump shows what packets are going through the network,
+bpfmon will show how much in terms of bytes per second and packets
+per second in a nice pseudo-graphical terminal interface.
+bpfmon also supports monitoring an iptables rule that is selected
+by command line option or selected from a menu.
