Giving up, my old curses code is too gross... better sent it to /dev/null. The only usable thing would be this piece, wrappers for adding/deleting ipv4/6 addresses. Might be useful even for python people, if they change err() for something they'd like. http://sztorkie.steadynet.org/files/temp/wra

I would also prefer a console based approach. I think it is not a good idea to do it for one single windows manager. Anyway, Arch Linux has a very nice console based network connection manager in case anybody is looking for ideas: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Netcfg Luis. 2010/10/7 Guilla
