"""
This bit of code allows you to control wireless networking
via Python. I chose to encapsualte wpa_supplicant because
it has the most consistent output with greatest functionality.

Currently supports OPEN, WPA[2], and WEP.

#e.g:

>>> iface = get_wnics()[0]
>>> start_wpa(iface)
>>> networks = get_networks(iface)
>>> connect_to_network(iface, "myHomeNetwork", "WPA", "singehackshackscomounaniña")
>>> is_associated(iface)
True
>>> do_dhcp(iface)
>>> has_ip(iface)
True
