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

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.
