OVERVIEW

13       wpa_gui is  a  QT  graphical  frontend  program  for  interacting  with
14       wpa_supplicant.  It  is used to query current status, change configura‐
15       tion and request interactive user input.
16
17       wpa_gui supports (almost) all of the interactive status and  configura‐
18       tion features of the command line client, wpa_cli. Refer to the wpa_cli
19       manpage for a comprehensive list of the interactive mode features.
