SYNOPSIS

gspl-user [ -options ]

DESCRIPTION

gspl-user provides 3 functions:

With no arguments it lists the permissions for the invoking user and exits.

With the -c option it enables the invoking user to edit his own default priority, form type and printer. The user must have change default priority permission to do this.

With the -i option it enables the invoking user to interactively review and update the list of permissions for all users. The user must have edit admin file permission to do this. For more information about the details of the interactive commands, please see the on-line help information, obtained by pressing ? (although this may be changed on your site). This section focuses on the command-line options which may be used to control the initial display.
