getpwent
========

Syntax
------

     #include <pwd.h>
     
     struct passwd *getpwent(void);

Description
-----------

This function retrieves the next available password file entry.  For
MS-DOS, this is simulated by providing exactly one entry:

     struct passwd {
       char * pw_name;    /* getlogin() */
       int    pw_uid;     /* getuid() */
       int    pw_gid;     /* getgid() */
       char * pw_dir;     /* "/" or getenv("HOME") */
       char * pw_shell;   /* "/bin/sh" or getenv("SHELL") */
     };

Return Value
------------

The next passwd entry, or `NULL' if there are no more.

Example
-------

     struct passwd *p;
     setpwent();
     while ((p = getpwent()) != NULL)
     {
       printf("user %s name %s\n", p->pw_name, p->pw_gecos);
     }
     endpwent();
