Hi,

I wrote a script to add a whole bunch of users to a FreeBSD box using input from
a file. However, I need something that works like adduser or useradd
without ncurses, that is, without prompting for input. Something that
allows me to just place all the arguments on a single line so that I can
run it in an awk loop. If anyone knows of such a thing, I would be ever
grateful for your assistance.
