hcxtools - solution for capturing wlan traffic and conversion to hashcat formats

[ZerBea]

With the latest update of hcxtools, hcxpcaptool is able to detect a GPS track from hcxpdumptool and convert this track to GPX format (for example accepted by Viking and GPSBabel):
$ hcxpcaptool -h
-g <file> : output GPS file
           format = GPX (accepted for example by Viking and GPSBabel)

We store a track point for every single frame in the comment field of the frame.
-g will convert this to GPX format.

I (hcxdumptool) did it that way, because every filter option of Wireshark tools will work on the pcapng file.
That means you can use a wireshark filter to write
- all beacons and/or
- all EAPOL frames and/or
- all proberequests and/or
- all src addresses and/or
- all host addresses and/or
- what ever you want....
to a new pcapng file.

Then run hcxpcaptool -g option on that file to retrieve a GPS track (in GPX format).
