The man page has..
SEE ALSO
an(4), ath(4), ipw(4), pci(4), wi(4), wlan(4), ifconfig(8),
iwicontrol(8,) wicontrol(8)
The IWI Web Page, http://damien.bergamini.free.fr/ipw/
There is no iwicontrol(8) page, and the URL goes to Damien's page. If you go
through to the Download area you can get the iwi firmware and iwicontrol
source but it seems like an oversight that a) iwicontrol isn't in base, and
b) the iwi firmware isn't available as a port, since both of these for ipw
are available.
