I'd strongly recommend using source control rather than just posting a
zip file. By breaking up development into chunks and describing what
you've done you can help yourself and others figure things out if a
change goes wrong, and review it later which can be useful as a learning
experience.

Comments from reading the code,

- Not sure if it was changed before or after 6.3, but certainly in
-current "ifconfig scan" no longer requires root.

- Some drivers report dB values (and iirc some are + some are -),
others report %, so the signal strength mechanism won't work in some
cases

- Doesn't handle open networks

- (Might want some rethink to cater for "ifconfig join" in -current)

- Doesn't really need to fire off dhclient if it's already running
on the interface?

Why not? At least it's not gitlab or github!
