Re: Scannning

[Joan Moreau <joan moreau m4x org>]

Dan,

The use case, is, as many people with a laptop, to move from a location 
to another, and not willing to wait 2 minutes because the applet just 
does not scan fast enough the new networks available.

Does it cost  much just to set a menu (as in all Windows) that reset the 
list of  network available and launch a scan immediately ?

Thanks a lot, it would make  life much easier for some of us,

Joan
