If by "configuring wifi by hand" you mean writing config files by hand, that's actually not necessary with plain wpa_supplicant too. There is
wpa-gui
(orwpa-cute
if you prefer Qt over GTK), which is basically a GUI frontend to wpa_supplicant, which makes adding new networks nearly as easy as with NetworkManager. But it's a far less modern looking UI than the NM frontends.Thanks for the info, I'll take a look. "far less modern looking" is a selling point for me haha. Give me those win95-looking gtk2 interfaces!
