Subject: pts: ID 0 and groups of groups
Date: Wed, 08 Apr 92 14:59:37 -0500
If you read the cmd ref it is documented that an id of '0' selects the
next unused id. Seems like this was just an easy way for the pts coder
to let someone specify a "default" id. I guess all the other integers
were taken since user ids are positive and group ids are negative.
Would have been nice to have a "-default" flag instead. I too would
have prefered an id of 0 for admin.
