## Description

`nmtui` is a curses‐based TUI application for interacting with NetworkManager. When starting `nmtui`, the user is prompted to choose the activity to perform unless it was specified as the first argument.

The supported activities are:

`edit`

  Show a connection editor that supports adding, modifying, viewing and deleting connections. It provides similar functionality as `nm-connection-editor`.

`connect`

  Show a list of available connections, with the option to activate or deactivate them. It provides similar functionality as `nm-applet`.

`hostname`

  Set the system hostname.

Corresponding to above activities, `nmtui` also comes with binaries named `nmtui-edit`, `nmtui-connect`, and `nmtui-hostname` to skip the selection of the activities.
