I pass on this one. My brain is not made for programming. Though I think I can handle pretty much everything else pretty well, and I am now nearing 34 years working in various fields in IT, I just pass on scripting on everything longer than a very long one-liner. Not for lack of trying. I do understand scripts in various scripting languages well enough to debug them, to adjust them to my needs and to expand them if necessary. But I could not write one on my own if my life depends on it. Does this make me dumb?

IWGETID(8) Linux Programmer's Manual IWGETID(8)
NAME
iwgetid - Report ESSID, NWID or AP/Cell Address of wireless network
SYNOPSIS
iwgetid [interface] [--raw] [--scheme] [--ap] [--freq]
[--mode] [--protocol] [--channel]
DESCRIPTION
iwgetid is used to find out the NWID, ESSID or AP/Cell Address of the wireless network that is currently used. The information reported is
the same as the one shown by iwconfig, but iwgetid is easier to integrate in various scripts.
By default, iwgetid will print the ESSID of the device, and if the device doesn't have any ESSID it will print its NWID.
The default formatting output is pretty-print.
OPTIONS
--raw This option disables pretty-printing of the information. This option is orthogonal to the other options (except --scheme), so with
the appropriate combination of options you can print the raw ESSID, AP Address or Mode.
This format is ideal when storing the result of iwgetid as a variable in Shell or Perl scripts or to pass the result as an argument
on the command line of iwconfig.
--scheme
This option is similar to the previous one, it disables pretty-printing of the information and removes all characters that are not
alphanumerics (like space, punctuation and control characters).
The resulting output is a valid Pcmcia scheme identifier (that may be used as an argument of the command cardctl scheme). This for-
mat is also ideal when using the result of iwgetid as a selector in Shell or Perl scripts, or as a file name.
--ap Display the MAC address of the Wireless Access Point or the Cell.
--freq Display the current frequency or channel used by the interface.
--channel
Display the current channel used by the interface. The channel is determined using the current frequency and the frequency list pro-
vided by the interface.
--mode Display the current mode of the interface.
--protocol
Display the protocol name of the interface. This allows to identify all the cards that are compatible with each other and accept the
same type of configuration.
This can also be used to check Wireless Extension support on the interface, as this is the only attribute that all drivers support-
ing Wireless Extension are mandated to support.
