Hi, all.

AFAIK, there is no GUI app for managing wireless connections on OpenBSD
(such as NetworkManager or WICD). While such a thing is not necessary in
case of a desktop user (you add your home wireless network just once and
never touch it again), a laptop user could really benefit from such a
thing, since he needs to switch between networks quite frequently. I know
there is dhcpcd-ui, but AFAIK not only does it require a patch for a
kernel, but it also manages encryptions through wpa_supplicant, not
ifconfig. However, something similar is needed.

So my question is, has someone ever tried writing custom scripts to do
the job? Or maybe someone has a better solution (besides using ifconfig
directly). I know some guys use OpenBox pipe menus for that, but is there
some WM-independent option?
