Wireless

As i wanted to forget about playing with ifconfig to configure the
wireless connection, and did not find something like wifi-radar for
linux (the python program), 
did a similar thing wich speaks with ifconfig.

It works most of the time here. It works over mono and gtk#2


anyone has a wireless card to test this there?..
what do you think?

mine is a intel2100 card.

the program works with
"ifconfig ipw0"
so if you have lets say the wi0 device, do this before
"ifconfig wi0 name ipw0"

(how do i list all wifi devices?)



Problems i have found (do you get the same ones?):

- The Process() class doesnt see to work fine, it leaves <defunct>
processes behind
- ifconfig ipw0 scan does not delete ssid's when the becomse offline
(driver problem?)


FreeBSD 6.0-beta2 on x86
and Mono 1.1.8.3
