Out of curiosity, what needs this? I'm interested to know; a config tool of some sort? Something that reports network status or configuration? Anyway, NetworkManager doesn't write stuff out to text files. If you need this information, you can use NetworkManagerDispatcher to run a script to pull the information out of NetworkManager via D-Bus and write it to those files as you wish. Using Python would be even easier. The standard way to get information about your network is to use the NetworkManager D-Bus interface, not text files. > /etc/wpa_supplicant.conf.

Thanks. Yup! D-Bus :) If you need pointers on the D-Bus interface or how to talk to it via Python or something, just let me know and I'd be happy to help.
