WiFiScriptor CommentaryThis is harder in Mac OS than it should be. - Version: 0.2, 4/8/2007 06:46AM PST

supercrisp1
I wish the OS provided us such a hook. However, I've been using applescript to do this. I don't know who originally wrote this code snippet, but I think I picked it up over on macosxhints: do shell script "system_profiler SPAirPortDataType|awk -F\": \" '/Current Wireless Network/{print $2}' -- this will return you the SSID which you can use to detect your home or other network. I use it to mount volumes and run backups when I get home and to put away some elements of my movie collection when my work SSID is detected ;-)

WiFiScriptor CommentaryCreates a menu bar menu, all options grayed out - Version: 0.2, 4/7/2007 01:21PM PST

I launche the app but all the options in the menu are grayed out. Doesn't seem to be a way to set options, or even quit. Need to force quit with activity monitor.
