Sometimes you just want to restart your wifi because stuff got weired. Please add a restart command to netctl-auto to make this comfortable.

Also the documentation does not list start and stop commands. Please add them to the usage() block.

Thank you!

The proper way to restart netctl-auto is to use "systemctl restart netctl-auto@<iface>".

As the man page of netctl-auto(1) states, the start/stop commands of netctl-auto are not supposed to be called directly by the user. The netctl-auto utility is only supposed to be used for enabling/disabling individual profiles. Instead, systemctl should be used to manage the netctl-auto service itself.
