I use a little program called wifiroamd:
Name: wifiroamdRelocations: (not relocatable)
Version : 1.15 Vendor: duckland.org
Release : 1.fc10Build Date: Sat 18 Apr 2009
05:34:20 AM CST
Install Date: Sat 18 Apr
here is what i do:
fire up urxvt:
# iwlist wlan0 scan
# iwconfig wlan0 essid NameOfWirelessNetwork key foobar123 #ap {MAC
address} (optional)
# iwconfig #just to see if it worked.
# dhcpcd -d wlan0 #-d flag stands for debug, but its really
analogous to --verbose
# firefox

ifconfig and dhclient?
Those two don't really deal with the wireless layer of 802.11 (though
ifconfig does in some OS'es to an extent).
He probably meant: iwconfig and dhclient
I used to use stalonetray to be able to access nm-applet for wireless.
But I've recently gotten a pretty good config going for wpa_supplicant
that auto-connects to my secure wireless, but also uses any unsecured
networks automatically when I'm on the road. It's pretty straightforward
to setup,

indeed
wicd has a client/server architecture, suppose one could roll ncurses client

personally i dont have dbus daemon
I use two naïve scripts, two files and an alias:
#wep connect to a wep wifi
#! /bin/sh
key=`grep $1 /home/pmarin/wep | cut -d' ' -f2`
sudo ifconfig wlan0 up
sudo iwconfig wlan0 essid $1
sudo iwconfig wlan0 key s:$key
sudo dhclient wlan0
#end
The wep is a plain file with to columms
essid key
I wrote a script[1] that uses dmenu to present local wifi networks,
and ask for a wep key. Shouldn't be too hard to extend to wpa etc.

Hi,
I use a homemade extension I made of the Ian Daniher wifi script:
http://lists.suckless.org/dwm/0901/7282.html
This wifi script parses a csv file containing the configurations of frequent
networks. (example csv file attached)
It uses iwlist, iwconfig, ifconfig, dhclient and wpa_supplicant

They could probably use some work, but you should get the basic idea.

The wpa_supplicant.conf that comes with the package is really
descriptive. I just edited it to suit and added the wpa_supplicant init
script provided with my distro to the default runlevel.
Here's my my wpa_supplicant.conf:
---
# this lets me run wpa_cli
I actually meant exactly ifconfig and dhclient (and wpa_supplicant).
On FreeBSD, this is what I'm using (no iwconfig available...)
in /etc/rc.conf add:
ifconfig_ndis0=ssid your_ssid bssid your_bssid WPA DHCP
in /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf add:
network={
ssid=your_ssid
psk=your_password
}
