wpa_cli quirks?

[Kel Modderman]

Hi,

I'd like to query the handling of wpa_cli commands executed as 
arguments, rather than  from within the wpa_cli console. Are they 
handled differently as in the following example?


root at KELSLAP:/home/kel# wpa_cli -i eth1 set_network 1 ssid "kelnet"
FAIL
root at KELSLAP:/home/kel# wpa_cli -i eth1
wpa_cli v0.5.1

I would have expected the same result from both scenarios.


Also, are the valid values of ap_scan only 0,1 & 2?

 > ap_scan 0
OK
 > ap_scan 1
OK
 > ap_scan 2
OK
 > ap_scan 3
FAIL
 > ap_scan foo
OK

Shouldn't it reject the garbage value of "foo"?

Thanks, Kel.
