WmWiFi      0.1-1
-----------------

 If your reading this, then you are probably running Window Maker, and have a 
 WiFi (wireless) card installed on your Linux box.

 !!!! BE AWARE !!!!
 This is my first attempt at writing a Window Maker dockapp, so if this thing
 destroy's your computer, kills your dog, or burns down your house, don't 
 blame me for it. This is very experimental at the moment.

 This dockapp displays the signal strength to your current access point.
 
-----------------
Requirements
-----------------

 libXpm          http://freshmeat.net/projects/libxpm
 libdockapp      ftp://truffula.com/pub/libdockapp-0.4.tgz

 To compile this, you'll need libdockapp, libxpm, and all the X development 
 libs. Chances are, if you have installed other dockapps, then you will have 
 no problems compiling this.

 Linux Wireless Extensions.
 This program relys on the Wireless Extentions being enabled (and working) in
 the 2.4.X kernel series. If you can "cat /proc/net/wireless", then this thing
 will probably work for you. If "cat /proc/net/wireless" returns nothing, then
 this dockapp wont work.


-----------------
Building
-----------------

 Yup, you guessed it...
 If you have met all the *requirements* then just do:
 ./configure; make; make install


-----------------
The "Look"
-----------------

 I changes the look in this version (0.2) from the ugly one in 0.1. I sort
 of modeled this look after my cell phone.

 The Link quality of your card is now displayed as a percentage (0% - 100%)
 rather than displaying the actuall quality from /proc/net/wireless, which
 may be confisusing to some people since /proc/net/wireless reports full
 strength as 92. So now full strength is 100%.

 If you like to old interface better, please let me know, and I will add
 compile time or runtime options to switch it in the next version.


-----------------
Stuff it doesn't do... yet
-----------------

 As of this version, wmwifi only monitors the link quality, and only that of
 your first interface. So if you have 3 wireless cards on your system, 
 wmwifi will only display the link quality of eth0, or wlan0.

-----------------
Stuff it will do... soon
-----------------

 As stated above, it only monitors the link quality of your first interface.
 Planned additions to wmwifi include:

 	- Monitor all cards reported by /proc/net/wireless
	- Display Link, Level, and Noise.
