| I really need to script this.  Something like: | ||||
|  | ||||
| 1. Auto-check wireless device. | ||||
|  | ||||
| 2. Auto-check scan for devices and grab names | ||||
|  | ||||
| 3. Display names | ||||
|  | ||||
| 4. Prompt for name selection (e.g. '1'). | ||||
|  | ||||
| 5. Auto-connect to wireless associated with selection n. | ||||
|  | ||||
| 6. Prompt for password. | ||||
|  | ||||
| 7. Try to connect. | ||||
|  | ||||
| 8. Ask if user wants a password copy stored in /tmp/. | ||||

| This is a shitshow.  Focus: netctl is the Arch project to get this going. | ||||

| Okay - can't be fucked.  Most of this is systemd based.	 | ||||
