-Wireless tools. Includes:
-    * iwconfig manipulate the basic wireless parameters
-    * iwlist (formerly part of iwspy) allow to list addresses, frequencies, bit-rates...
-    * iwspy allow to get per node link quality
-    * iwpriv allow to manipulate the Wireless Extensions specific to a driver (private)
+The Wireless Tools (WT) is a set of (reference implementation) tools
+allowing to manipulate the Wireless Extensions.  They use a textual
+interface and are rather crude, but aim to support the full Wireless
+Extension.
