Re: need wifi on laptop

Alas, so close. But my conf file already has the proper ssid. (Copied below with psk turned to x's by me for posting purposes.) The only thing i noticed was there is no closing bracket. Adding one on the next line has no effect. network={ ssid="B&V Networks Ltd" psk="xxxxxxxxx"

I am currently unable to set up wifi printing on either antergos linux or ghostbsd. It previously worked on manjaro linux, but i left that os. Have attempted to follow the usual directions without success. On Dell latitude e5420. Many thanks for any suggestions!

any word processor like Focuswriter?

Hi all!

I've found bsd ports or equivalents for most of the programs i use on linux, but nothing i like for a word processor. I use and enjoy focuswriter. Does anyone know of something similar for bsd, or whether this program will be available on bsd? Many thanks for your suggestions!
