Wow, and in only 25,000 lines of code!

It must be adding a lot of text-based screen displays with loads of options. Nice!

It was only just put out on git a few days ago, so it would need to be downloaded and compiled at the moment.

As an aside, wicd has both cli and curses clients already. However, using nmtui does not require switching to a different manager of networking.
