* Added a connection_lost_counter to prevent the wicd frontend from trying to automatically reconnect too quickly if signal strength is briefly lost.
* Added some code to hopefully fix some of the dbus-related encoding problems caused by essids with weird characters. (Might still need work).
* The tray/gui will now show up in the process manager under the name wicd (along with the wicd icon), instead of just python.
* Added a GetCurrentInterface() method to the daemon that will eventually be used in the VPN plugin.
* Fixed a possible crash caused by signal strength not being returned correctly.
* Split the Wired Profile Chooser from the appGui class, so they are now called separately within wicd.py. When the profile chooser is called from the daemon, it sets a flag as well as sending a dbus signal, so the chooser will still launch if the wicd frontend isn't running yet.
* Added some docstrings, comments, etc. Probably a few other small changes I'm forgetting.
Added a "Connecting..." dialog to tray icon in experimental branch
Possibly fixed issue where GUI statusbar would still show up as connected when ethernet cable was unplugged.
Changed the way wired profile chooser gets launched (now uses a dbus signal)
Fixed bug where launching gui.py through the tray sometimes left a zombie (uses a dbus signal)
Added a bunch of docstrings and changed formatting to follow python conventions
Added support for displaying signal strength in dBm instead of a percentage
Added some print statements during the ad-hoc connection process
Started work on a way to autoconnect to a hidden network (not done or working yet)
wnettools.py: DetectWirelessInterfaces() didn't return the wireless interface
daemon.py: GetGlobalDNSAddresses() now returns a blank string instead of None for blank addresses; None could not be sent over dbus
By splitting the common tasks performed by the networking module out
into a separate set of classes, it is possible to reduce code
duplication and improve the structure of the networking module.
The wnettools module now performs _almost_ all the actual commands that
control the network interfaces, splitting it from the actual connection
logic contained in the networking module. Splitting these two tasks also
allows for tool changes to be made in a central location, rather than
spread throughout the networking.py file.
Fixed typo in the wpa_supplicant string in networking.py.
Changed formatting in dapper.py, edgy.py, and networking.py to conform closer to python coding conventions (and hopefully improve readability in general)
Move the old module code in daemon.py into a main() function, splitting
off the daemonization into daemonize() function. Also add correct
parsing of command line arguments to allow disabling of stderr and
stdout redirection, daemonizing and auto-connect.
Tidy up start of file including correct GPL license pre-amble and a
short description of the wicd daemon module.
FlushWriter looped through all the characters provided, writing them one
at a time. This is not strictly necessary, so modify the algorithm to
use a smart substitution and keep the timestamps correct. Name change to
better match its behaviour.
Removed autostarting daemon code so that script execution would work properly.
Added channel display support for cards that only get frequency info in 'iwlist scan'.
Changed autoconnect behavior to fix a bug where dbus would crash if connecting was taking too long.
Changed/added some comments.
