Hi Ben, have you tried updating the Preferences (Appearance > Window Title or Prepend window title) with the %C flag ? This should work when calling wireshark from the command line, and a --capture-comment option)
For example: wireshark --capture-comment window1 ; wireshark --capture-comment window2 .. Please have a look at the User Guide for more options or come back here if it isn't clear enough ( https://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsug_html_chunked/ChCustPreferencesSection.html#_appearance ) regards E.A.
