I'm still learning C and ncurses. I'm not tackling perl yet. And... As
I've asked before, *HOW* do I make it the default shell? I know that you
have to add it to /etc/shells, but *WHAT* is the next step in order to
make something a default shell -- I want it so that when I useradd, it
makes the menu shell the default in /etc/passwd, not /bin/bash, or
whatever.
