Wireshark

Can someone please explain the difference between Wireshark
and Wireshark-lite. I would like to install a packet sniffer
on my FreeBSD box for CLI only.
Thanks,

What's wrong with tcpdump(8)?  Other than that building
either the real or 
the -lite version with "WITHOUT_X11" defined will
get you the 
cli-version.  "-lite" seems to just disable a
couple of dissectors that 
have a lot of external dependencies.

I like the tshark-lite port myself to get the protocol
decoders in CLI 
(text) mode...
