Maybe pdf or html?
HTML isn't a graphic format, so presumably that'd be HTML with inline GIFs or PNGs - or, alternatively, inline SVGs. 
yes, exactly.
I.e., Tshark taps to do graphs? 
sorry, "taps"? Maybe that's some tshark think I haven't figured out yet?
It's a Wireshark-and-Tshark thing for developers, rather than users. It's the mechanism atop which most of the stats are implemented.
I've used tshark to dump stats to console and piped that to a file, and that works reasonably well for graphing. Is that what you mean? 

I used:
"tshark -r SomeFile.cap -z io,stats,10 -q > SomeFileStats.txt 2>&1"
That's not a graph (modulo analytic geometry, as per , so presumably you'd feed that file to some other program to produce a graph.
Yes, exactly. I can load the data from tshark into excel. But the wireshark graphs are a bit more powerful, allowing multiple graphs on a single page; also, once you've made them, it would be nice to print them or keep them around.
An option to the io,stat statistic to write out its data in CSV/TSV format might be useful there.
The current format of io,stat is actually ok for me: excel can load it fine.
