Hi All,

Looking through 'editfiles', I'm not seeing an easy way to edit a single field in /etc/passwd - I need to change the primary group for one account. I can't just replace the entire line since the Gecos and home dir aren't consistent across systems. Any ideas?

It'd be nice if there was an edit command that used a sed-like syntax that allowed backreferences.

Thanks,
         /\/elson
