        !            44: exactly two printable characters.  There is also an octal field
        !            45: that describes capabilities; the principle capability is the
        !            46: 000001 bit which allows that person to create databases.

        !            51: This file can be set up for everyone on your system by using
        !            52: the "usersetup" command.
