.SH NAME
.B wicd-curses
\- curses-based wicd(8) controller
.SH 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.
.SH "ARGUMENTS"
.TP
.BR "\-r" , " \-\-raw\-screen"
Use Urwid's raw console display. This is the default, and has several
advantages over the faster curses display, inculding fully functional unicode
and internationalization support.
.TP
.BR "\-c" , " \-\-curses\-screen"
Use Urwid's curses display. This may be faster than the default raw
display, but it lacks proper unicode support. This is fine to use if your
language of choice only uses Latin characters.
.SH CONTROLS
All of these are case sensitive.
.TP
.BR "C " or " enter"
Connect to selected network
.TP
.BR "F8 " or " Q " or " q"
Quit the client.
.TP

.BR ESC
If connecting to a network, stop doing so

.BR "F5 " or " R"
Refresh the network list
.TP
.BR P
Bring up the preferences controller
.TP
.BR I
Bring up hidden network scanning dialog
.TP
.BR "H " or " h " or " ?"
Bring up a rather simplistic help dialog. Of course, it mentions this man page first. :-)
.TP
.BR A
Raise the "About wicd-curses" dialog

.\"The following is a work in progress and might not be fully functional as of yet.

Rename the selected wired network profile (from the wired network combo box at the top)
.\".PP
.\"The following are not implemented yet:
.TP
.BR S
.\"Bring up the script selector for the selected network (requires superuser privileges)
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. ;-)
.TP
.BR O
Raise the Ad-Hoc network creation dialog
.SH "FILES"
.TP
.I ~/.wicd/WHEREAREMYFILES
Reminder that your network configuration files are not here ;-)

.SH 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.
