- To see who is presently logged onto the system, type who.
- To see what programs users are running, type w. For an explanation of the column

- To get information about a specific user type finger <user_name>. The programfinger gives some basic information about the user and prints out the file .plan if
the user has such a file in her/his home directory. So if you make a .plan file in your
home directory, other users will see it when they finger you. You will use a text editor to
create such a file. For example, you can use kwrite.
