=Have you ever done an "rwho"  and there are so many people on you network that
=it scrolls your screen?  Isn't it a real pain!?  Well, heres a solution I
=thought up:
=
=alias rwho 'rwho | chop 16 | chop 13 14 | pr -4 -t -l1'
=or
=alias rwh 'rwh | chop 16 | chop 13 14 | pr -4 -t -l1'
=
=it will give you an output like this (the "rwho" of course):
=
=e5as051	     c	  e5as067      c    operator	 u    s142007	   d
=s142015	     c	  s142023      c    s142023	 d    u381349596ea d
=u555370847ea d	  u558813523ea d    u562299989ea d    u571719246ea d

=etc..... there were many more...

=The single letters are the first letter of the machines that I may "rwho" to/at.

=Good Luck...ideas? ideas!? .....

I don't understand why I should be interested on those irrelevant users on
other machines. Particularly when the # of users is big. If I want to see
the users on some particular machine 'rwho | fgrep machine' does the fine
job. If I want to see a particular user, I do 'rwho | fgrep user'
