Description Roy Marples 2010-05-24 21:34:41 UTC 
dhcpcd-ui is a  GTK+ monitor and configuration GUI for  dhcpcd. It uses  dhcpcd-dbus  to actually talk to  dhcpcd  and  wpa_supplicant.

dhcpcd-ui sits in the notification area, it's icon representing the overall network state. When attempting to negotiate an address you get a nice animation. A notification bubble is also shown per interface state change.

A drop down menu shows available Access Points, which one your connected to, if they're encrypted or not and their overall quality. You can click on one to configure the PSK or WEP key 0 for it.

A gtk use flag is used as future support is planned for QT and EFL interfaces.
