Simplest way to detect if running in host mode or not? #118

I'm trying to configure another program to know when RaspiWiFi is in host/configuration mode or just running normally. Is there an easy way to do this?

I use the IP address to check if it is in host/configuration mode. This is my easy script... :)

#!/bin/bash case $(ifconfig) in "inet 10.0.0.1") echo $inet "IP found in 10 range for AP mode, leaving DNS alone" ;; *) echo $inet "Not in AP mode anymore, let's call the next script" /bin/bash /home/pi/wifi_fix_dns.sh ;; esac`
