<para>

|
The <command>vipw</command> and <command>vigr</command> commands edits
|
|
the files <filename>/etc/passwd</filename> and
|
|
<filename>/etc/group</filename>, respectively. With the
|
|
<option>-s</option> flag, they will edit the shadow versions of those
|
|
files, <filename>/etc/shadow</filename> and
|
|
<filename>/etc/gshadow</filename>, respectively. The programs will set
|
|
the appropriate locks to prevent file corruption. When looking for an
|
|
editor, the programs will first try the environment variable
|
|
<envar>$VISUAL</envar>, then the environment variable
|
|
<envar>$EDITOR</envar>, and finally the default editor,
|
|
<citerefentry><refentrytitle>vi</refentrytitle>
|
|
<manvolnum>1</manvolnum></citerefentry>.
