The following is for debian-like distro:
http://www.debuntu.org/how-to-wifi-roaming-with-wpa-supplicant/
Then you can use the method of Isaac and write manually your
configuration file, or use wpa_gui, which integrates a lot of tools to
help you, like scanning the wifi stations, detecting their properties
and ask you for the passwords. You can then save the configuration and
it goes to the same file you would edit by hand. After that, you don't
need wpa_gui alll the time. Normally you only need it when you want to
connect to a station which is not yet listed in your wpa_supplicant.conf .

Same kind of dislike towards network-manager. This is the first
package I use to remove after installing Debian. The reason: I don't
know really what it does and how, but it goes in the middle of my
way. I am well off with ifplugd, wpa_supplicant and a roaming
configuration of wlan0.
Didier,
Please, please, PLEASE post instructions on how to do everything
discussed in the preceding paragraph. I've had a lot of trouble
replacing NetworkManager/Wicd with wpa_supplicant and iwlist, even
though I know it's perfectly possible.
If you could place these instructions on the web and let us know the
URL, I know I'd be eternally grateful, and I bet I'm not alone.
