+#Plugin created by:
+# Stephen Hodgson
+# Malone College - CPSC
+# ported to perl and extended by Thomas Gutzler, 2008 (thomas.gutzler@gmail.com)
+
+# Feel free to modify this plugin, but if you do, be kind and email it back to me.  I'm all for improvements that anyone can make.
+
+# - This simple plugin figures out how many users are logged into the linux box
+# - The plugin takes advantage of the linux 'who' command.
+# - The who command is used to list all login names and number of users logged on.
+# - This information is used to output to values:
+#   1. total amount of users logged in
+#   2. amount of unique users logged in
+
+# Even though this plugin should run without configuration, it is possible to tell it the location of the who command
+# Configuration example
+# [usersv2]
+# env.who_cmd /usr/bin/who
+
+#%# family=auto
+#%# capabilities=autoconf
+
