wicd-curses curses wifi manager


A few locations discuss headless setup of the raspberry pi for bringing up such as the rpi zero W which can be made to boot up completely disconnected, due to the presence of wifi on the board.

However it would be nice to be able to add an additional Wifi net to connect to for such as when one wants to run the board on additional networks.

My use case is to have a pocket board which runs Linux and can tether if needed to a cell phone wifi for network access.

sudo apt-get install wicd-curses

will install a curses utility to manipulate the wifi connections.
