What debian packaged tool will let me choose a wireless access point
to attach to?

I have this in /etc/network/interfaces

-------------------
auto ath0
iface ath0 inet dhcp
       wireless_mode managed
-------------------

That's fine when I'm at home and there is only one access point in
range, but it won't always work when there are multiple access points
in range.
