  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.

I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god
than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other
possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.
