Those tools can't create or delete connections, which is kind of
important, so no. ;-) Of course you can always create the system
connections with a text editor, it's nothing too complex but the
format isn't documented AFAICT, probably because you are not supposed
to create them manually.

That said, nothing prevents the creation of a decent command-line
interface. There's cnetworkmanager, which wasn't working the last time
I checked (API incompatibility with the Debian packages, might have
been fixed by now). The DBus API is pretty straightforward, I use a
bunch of scripts to create and delete wireless connections.

Regards,
