FWIW pktview is a Perl script.

WRT pktinfo, I worked on C code recently and made some improvements, but its weakness is it heavily relies on HPT's packet parsing functions. A broken packet will tend to make pktinfo abort execution (like HPT would) instead of just displaying what information it can. There's not really an easy way I can fix that without potentially breaking something in HPT, so it will have to do.
