I managed to run the script (installing the perl-Gtk2-TrayIcon FC4 package).

The button (W) is well displayed into the system tray but when I click
on it, I have the error :
"cat: programsvar/scan_tf_2: No such file or directory"
appearing on the terminal.

And the plugin doesn't display the list of available network.

Hope this helps !
