You need :
--------
	o Compiler and development environment
	o A kernel supporting wireless extensions
		-> from 2.1.17 onward
		-> from 2.0.30 onward
		-> patch available for 1.2.13
		Note : CONFIG_NET_RADIO must be enabled
	o A driver supporting wireless extensions
		-> Wavelan isa from kernel 2.1.17 onward
		-> Wavelan pcmcia from pcmcia 2.9.2 onward
		-> Netwave pcmcia from pcmcia 2.9.12 onward
		-> Wavelan IEEE pcmcia drivers
		-> Proxim RangeLan2/Symphony driver
		-> Patch your favourite driver
	Note : more recent kernels and drivers are likely to support
		more wireless extension features...

Recommended versions :
--------------------
	This are the latest updates of the Wireless Extensions :
	o Kernel (wireless extension definition) :
		-> Kernel 2.2.11 onward
		-> Kernel 2.3.15 onward
		-> Kernel 2.0.37 + patch on my web page
	o Drivers with wireless extension support :
		-> Wavelan isa from kernel above
		-> Wavelan pcmcia from pcmcia 3.0.10 onward
		-> Netwave pcmcia from pcmcia 2.9.12 onward
		-> Wavelan IEEE pcmcia GPL driver (wvlan) 1.0.1 onward
		-> Wavelan IEEE pcmcia binary driver (wavelan2) v4.00 onward
		-> Proxim RangeLan2/Symphony driver 1.4.3 onward

Compile wireless tools :
----------------------
	In theory, a "make" should suffice.
	In practice, there is big troubles with the headers. If you
have glibc and kernel 2.2.X headers, that should be all
right. Depending on which version of the kernel headers (might be
different from kernel) and library headers you have, you need to play
with the options buried in iwcommon.h.
	Note : as some internal data structures change from kernel to
kernel, you are advised to not use the precompiled version but to
recompile your own.
	"xwireless" is not currently in a compilable state.

Installation :
------------
	I advise to copy the executable (iwconfig, iwspy and iwpriv)
in /usr/local/bin or /usr/local/sbin. The man pages (iwconfig.8,
iwspy.8 and iwpriv.8) should be copied in /usr/local/man/man8 or
/usr/man/man8.


List of contributors and changelog is in iwcommon.h.
