Description : tool for enabling and disabling wireless devices
rfkill is a simple tool for accessing the Linux rfkill device interface,
which is used to enable and disable wireless networking devices, typically
WLAN, Bluetooth and mobile broadband.
.
rfkill uses /dev/rfkill, which is present in Linux kernel 2.6.31 and later.
I'm choosing a git snapshot over 0.1 because it contains some functionality
which will be of use in eeepc-acpi-scripts.
