The channel is already displayed when you expand the single list item. Or did
you mean something different?

Ciao,
David

Man am I blind. Thanks.

Well it would be nice to have it in the overview line where there is
the MAC address. The reason is that sometimes you have to check all your
surroundings for a free channel andexpanding all is a bit a pain.

Would be nice to have

 ESSID NN% Unsecured NN:NN:NN::NN:NN:NN  Channel


Best wishes

Norbert

 Maybe I should add Master Channel XX to the overview, and drop the line in
 the detailed view? Will work on that.

Hmm, but then the first line will be too long, that is the reason why I
suggested to only show the number of the channel, or
ch NN
and show the full string Master Channel XX on the details.

But this is up to you.

And, grazie tantissimo, I can't imagine living without wicd anymore ..

Nessun problema! ;)

ACK.
That'd need some changes though, to avoid redundancy. Currently each item looks
like:

ESSID NN% Security NN:NN:NN::NN:NN:NN
  [x] Automatically connect to this network
  NN% Security NN:NN:NN::NN:NN:NN Master Channel XX
  [Script] [Advanced settings]
[Connect]

Maybe I should add Master Channel XX to the overview, and drop the line in
the detailed view? Will work on that.
