adding a mess of users

In desperation, I have put together a combination of shell
scripts and C programs that can add a LOT of users to our
Altos 5000 running SCO "Unix" by reading the user info
out of a single file that is prepared with an editor.

I would be willing to post this stuff, just for the
edification and use of anyone interested, or e-mail it
to anyone that asks for it.  ("As-is" of course.)

I haven't been reading this group long enough to know if
posting the sources here is a good idea or not.  I'll probably
just hang on to them, unless I am deluged with demand for them.
In the meantime, if anyone wants them by e-mail, let me know.

Thanks to all of the folks out there in the net that offered
suggestions.  There were all helpful, and the culmination
is that we have solved our problem, at least on a temporary
basis.
