[dev] wicd and his little friends

Thanks, I was still searching for alternatives to wicd.
I get it that wpa_supplicant also knows how to do WEP?

I still want wireless to be switched off completely when I attach the
ethernet cable. Is there any program I could combine with wpa_actiond
to acchieve this?
