DESCRIPTION

19       iwconfig.py  intends  to  be a drop-in replacement for iwconfig(8), but
20       uses the pythonwifi module  to  implement  its  functionality  in  pure
21       Python.  See the iwconfig(8) man page for more detail about what iwcon‐
22       fig.py can do.
23
24       But, at this time, this program does not work well (if at all).
25
26       The compatitibilty of specific operations iwconfig.py has  with  iwcon‐
27       fig(8) are listed below.
