I am using a "for" loop to process a file set exporting several fields using -T fields -e <display field=""> out to a text file. Is it possible to somehow export the name of the file with each processed line so that I know which file in the set it is from?

Thanks in advance!

You didn't say what OS you are using. If you are using a *nix system with something like bash or zsh and your input filename is the variable you are looping across you should be able to pipe your tshark output to sed to prepend the filename to the output. Such as:

tshark -r "$i" -T fields -e frame.number -e frame.time | sed "s/^/$i: /"

I'm using Windows 10, but using WSL Ubuntu. That worked like a champ! Thanks!
