Nice, thanks Todd.

But if I can't use Snort without it taking down my wifi, I must set it aside.  Best idea I've heard so far is 
monitoring tun, but no idea how to forward packets there, and also it couldn't be promiscuous.

In your snort.conf put the line:

config interface: <iface>

e.g.

config interface: en1


For no promiscuous mode:

config no_promisc


As for emailing alerts, Snort has no built-in way to do this.  syslog
may have a way to do what you want.  There are also other third party
apps that may be able to do what you want, e.g. Base or Sguil.
