Airfart Description
AirFart is a wireless tool created to detect wireless devices, detect their signal strengths AirFart is a wireless tool created to detect wireless devices, calculate their signal strengths, and present them to the user in an easy-to-understand fashion. It is written in C/C++ with a GTK front end. Airfart supports all wireless network cards supported by the linux-wlan-ng Prism2 driver that provide hardware signal strength information in the "raw signal" format (ssi_type 3). Airfart has a modular n-tier architecture with the data collection at the bottom tier and a graphical user interface at the top.Following suit with the major players in the wireless arena, we decided the 'air' prefix best categorizes airfart. Further, re-arrange the letters in 'traf' and you can get 'fart.' So, our mission is to sniff out wireless devices who broadcast a 'scent'.We hope our name isn't offensive. 99% of the people we have come in contact with have thought the name is clever and funny. Remember, no one is forcing you to use it... What's New in This Release:· Updated interface.c and Makefile, now graphics are located in /usr/share/pixmaps/airfart · Updated vendor.c, now manuf file is located in /usr/share/airfart; · need to do 'make install' before running airfart· Added initial Gentoo ebuild file; still needs work· Number of packets received per ethernet address is now stored· Tweaked Makefile to not bail out if directories already exist· Added the star to the about entry in help· Added GUI support for Packet Count· Added a column for numerical (percentage) strength· Added support for a config file and a basic preferences box· Changes do not yet affect behaviour of the program
