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
;-)

report to
