Note that nmcli provides a prompt after supplying a password. ??
A previous installation of network-manager was space delimited, i.e. did not 
require quotes for the ESSID or password. Also, the previous edition (which 
still works on a different machine) lists C&WM(wlx9cefd5fdec63) 
for the ESSID in the network manager GUI
Net result is that although several WiFi signals are shown, the package will 
not connect.
