Hi, I found sometime on Sunday to add some bits into the current man page of th= e wpi_cli(8).=20 Changes I have done; * Updated the SYNPOSIS section to reflect the command line options * Added OPTIONS section for the description of each command line option (su= ch as -v, -a, -G, -g, -B)* Added other supported commands into the COMMANDS= sections. I used wpa_cli_commands[] structure contained in the /contrib/wp= a/wpa_supplicant/wpa_cli.c file as my reference while adding new commands (= I excluded commands that need special compile time options) There is a .diff file I generated against the wpa_cli.8 found in the "head"= , but not sure about the next step?=20 Shall I create a bug report and submit the diff accordingly? Thanks in advance....

The functionality exists, and wpa_cli(8) responds the "ping" re= quests. /usr/src % wpa_cli ping=C2=A0=20 Selected interface 'wlan0' PONG Same parameter/command is well documented in some wpa_cli ports found in se= veral gnu/linux based OS'es. I acknowledge that wpa_cli -h | grep ping would yield the usage of ping arg= ument, but I wonder why this is not included in the man page. Regards Fehmi
