## Overview

wpa_gui is a QT graphical frontend program for interacting with wpa_supplicant. It is used to query current status, change configuration and request interactive user input.

wpa_gui supports (almost) all of the interactive status and configuration features of the command line client, wpa_cli. Refer to the wpa_cli manpage for a comprehensive list of the interactive mode features.

## Command Arguments

-p path

- Change the path where control sockets should be found.

-i ifname

- Specify the interface that is being configured. By default, choose the first interface found with a control socket in the socket path.

-m seconds

- Set the update interval in seconds for the signal strength meter. This value must be a positive integer, otherwise meter is not enabled (default behavior).

-t

- Start program in the system tray only (if the window manager supports it). By default the main status window is shown.

-q

- Run program in the quiet mode - do not display tray icon pop-up messages.
