wpa_cli will also work; if anyone's interested, I've written a shellscript
based on dialog that simplifies configuring wpa_supplicant.
I don't understand why you, Isaac, and also Steve want to do this
yourself and always avoid speaking of wpa_gui. wpa_gui will really help
you configuring wpa_supplicant. It detects all the needed parameters and
only requires you to enter the secret keys. Why rewrite all this
yourself (unless for training)?
BTW I had a look at wicd the other day and read I could only
configure it for one wifi station. Is that true? wpa_supplicant can
store an unlimited list of stations and connect to the one it detects...
I have more than 30 in my wpa_supplicant.conf -- labs, homes, hotels, bars.
