  EDACCT COMMANDS

  The  following interactive editing commands may be entered from standard input
  if you do not include -A, -D, -C, or -L on the EDACCT command line.    In  all
  cases,  periods may be used instead of blanks to separate person, project, and
  organization identifiers.

  a [pers [proj [org [homedir [password]]]]]
            Add  a  new account.  The account is added AFTER the current account
            (last one listed) unless you have positioned to the top  (t).    You
            will  be  prompted for any fields omitted.  Press <RETURN> to assign
            the default, if appropriate. A space between two quotes may be  used
            to specify a blank password.

  d [pers [proj [org]]]
            Delete one or more accounts.  If  no  fields  are  given,  only  the
            current  entry (last one listed) is deleted.  % may be specified for
            wildcard match, in which case all matching entries  (from  the  top)
            are deleted.  If proj and/or org are omitted, % is assumed for them.
            Verification of each deletion is requested.  The last deleted  entry
            is saved and may be moved to a different place using 'i'.

  i         Insert  the  last  deleted  entry at the current location (after the
            current entry or at the top).

  t         Move to the top of the file, before the first entry.

  b         Move to the bottom of the file, at the last entry.

  n [[-]number]
            Move  up (-) or down "number" entries. For example, "n 2" moves down
            two entries, while "n -4" moves up four entries.    If  "number"  is
            omitted, the default is 1.

  c [pers [proj [org]]]
            Change one or more entries.  If no arguments are specified, only the
            current  entry  is  changed.    %  specifies wildcard match. If proj
            and/or org are omitted, % is assumed for them.    If  arguments  are
            given,  the search begins at the top of the file.  Wildcarded fields
            are not eligible for changing.  You will be prompted  for  each  new
            field in order.  Press <RETURN> to keep a field unchanged.

  l [pers [proj [org]]]
            List the current entry (if no arguments are specified) or the  first
            matching  entry,  starting  at  the  top.   % may be used to specify
            wildcard match.

  la [pers [proj [org]]]
            List  all  matching  entries, starting at the top.  % may be used to
            specify wildcard match.

  ln [pers [proj [org]]]
            List  the next matching entry, starting at the current entry.  If no
            arguments are given, the previous name specification is used.

  lc        List all the changed or new entries.

  ll        List the locality of the current entry, displaying the preceding and
            succeeding 5 entries.

  wr        Update the file with all changes and exit.

  q         Quit without updating.
