NvArch

Made with Shell

Written purely in shell, networkmanager program made to automate and provide seamless connection to known networks.

Guide

Generally, your SSID and password does not save, leading you to constantly retype your Network's password, creating a tiring process. This shell project is meant to change that.

wifirand : Typing the wifirand command will lead to the program to save your SSID and password. However, please keep in mind that wifirand must be accompanied by your . It will prompt you to save a password.

ex: wifirand Verizon_XXXX Keep in mind that as of writing this, only one SSID and password can be saved at a time

wificon: Typing this command will auto connect you to the SSID and password you listed in the wifirand command.

ex: wificon

Where does it save?:

It saves to a hidden file in your home directory, specifically, ~/.wificnt/wifi.md. Through here, the shell script is able to edit and save your wifi in plaintext.
