NAME

       wicd-curses - curses-based wicd(8) controller

DESCRIPTION

       wicd-curses  is	a  curses-based  network controller that uses the Wired/Wireless Internet Connection Daemon (wicd) to control your network
       connections. It is suitable to run in terminal multiplexers like screen(1).

       It is designed to imitate the GTK-based wicd-client(1) as much as possible, and uses the  Urwid	(http://excess.org/urwid)  console  widget
       library to vastly simplify development.

       This man page only documents the current status of wicd-curses.	This may/may not be the most up-to-date document.

CONTROLS

       All of these are case sensitive.

       C or enter
	      Connect to selected network

       F8 or Q or q
	      Quit the client.

       D      Disconnect all devices from network connections

       ESC    If connecting to a network, stop doing so

       F5 or R
	      Refresh the network list

       P      Bring up the preferences controller

       I      Bring up hidden network scanning dialog

       H or h or ?
	      Bring up a rather simplistic help dialog.  Of course, it mentions this man page first. :-)

       A      Raise the "About wicd-curses" dialog

       right-arrow
	      Bring up network configuration controller for the selected network

       delete Delete the selected wired network profile (from the wired network combo box at the top)

       F2     Rename the selected wired network profile (from the wired network combo box at the top)

       S      Bring  up instructions on how to edit the scripts.  I have implemented a way to do this in the interface itself, but making it func-
	      tion with all Linux distros would be difficult.  Since you are reading this, you should know how to do what I suggest.  ;-)

       O      Raise the Ad-Hoc network creation dialog

FILES

       ~/.wicd/WHEREAREMYFILES
	      Reminder that your network configuration files are not here ;-)

SEE ALSO

BUGS

       Probably lots.  ;-)

       If you happen to find one, ask about it on #wicd on freenode, or submit a bug report to http://launchpad.net/wicd.
