wscan is a X-based application, that uses the ftlk toolkit,
and works with Lucent/Orinoco cards (wi0 driver ...) to
show signal strength/quality/noise.   It works on FreeBSD,
and various species of linux, including familiar/ipaq.  (Frankly,
the latter has been the hangup, as orinoco_cs has some
signal strength bugs on the ipaq that we had to code around).

Findable at: http://www.cs.pdx.edu/research/SMN,  and
the tar blob itself is really at: 
ftp://ftp.cs.pdx.edu/pub/mobile/wscan1.00.tar.gz

Differences with the pre-release are:
	1. some bug fixes, including the history "dot" mechanism
	in the detail screen.
	2. the "log" button ... :->
	3. works with prism2 cards, maybe!.  At least it works
	with my d-link card under wi0, but you only get "signal strength".

Thanks for those who have tried it out already.

I submitted it as a BSD port.
