EDPPO/COMMANDS


  If  you omit the -A, -D, -L, and -LF options on the command line, EDPPO enters
  an interactive editing session  which  accepts  the  following  commands  from
  standard input.

  a [name [fullname]]
            Define one or more new names, along with optional  full  name.    If
            'fullname' is omitted, EDPPO will prompt you for it.  Enter an empty
            line if you wish the fullname field to be null. (See  -A  above  for
            name  formats and restrictions.)  If no name is specified, names are
            read from standard input.

  c name new_name [new_fullname]
            Change  'name'  to 'new_name'.  If 'new_fullname' is also specified,
            change the full name associated with 'name' to 'new_fullname'.

  cf name new_fullname
            Change the full name associated with the name indicated.

  d name    Delete  the  name  indicated.  Once deleted, the name identifier can
            NOT be recreated.  DELETE JUDICIOUSLY.  Normally, people's  accounts
            should be deleted (with EDACCT), NOT their names.

  l [name]  List one or all names defined (including new ones).

  lf [name] List  one  or all names defined with their associated full names, if
            any.

  ln        List only those names added during this editing session.

  wr        Update the file with the changes and exit.

  q         Quit without updating.

  h [comm]  Help -- list briefly all the  available  commands  or  a  particular
            command in detail.
