     32     <para>wpa_gui is a QT graphical frontend program for interacting
     33     with wpa_supplicant. It is used to query current status, change
     34     configuration and request interactive user input.</para>
     35 
     36     <para>wpa_gui supports (almost) all of the interactive status and
     37     configuration features of the command line client, wpa_cli. Refer
     38     to the wpa_cli manpage for a comprehensive list of the
     39     interactive mode features.</para>
