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 function 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

       X      Show the list of saved wireless networks, to be able to remove them

FILES

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

SEE ALSO

       wicd-client(1), wicd(8)

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.
