edusers - edit users list created by package

       Raphael Manfredi <Raphael_Manfredi@pobox.com>

       This command lets you safely edit the users list created by the package command. It locks the file before
       launching  the  editor, hence protecting against any concurrent update by some package command that could
       arrive at the same time (by e-mail). The level of protection this locking buys you depends on the locking
       policy you have configured in your ~/.mailagent.

       If you are within a package source tree, all you need to say is

            edusers

       to edit the users file for that package. In order for that  particular  feature  to  work  properly,  the
       package  must have been placed under dist control, or at least the packinit command from the dist package
       must have been run.

       Otherwise, you may specify a system name, and optionally a version  number  if  that  is  not  enough  to
       disambiguate. Using '-' will get you the lattest version available.

       In any case, there must be a proper setting of the distribs file to use this command. If that file is not
       accurate, the package command will not be able to produce a users file anyway.

       The  editor  is taken out of the EDITOR variable if defined, then from the VISUAL variable, defaulting to
       /usr/ae if none of the variables is set.
