bc991a6d5f Add the groupmod '-d' option to pw to allow the deletion of existing users
from a group without the need to perform the same operation by replacing
the existing list via the '-M' option.  The '-M' option requires someone
to fetch the existing members with pw, deleting the undesired members from
the list and sending the altered list back to pw.

more specific about the effect of the current umask on -M.

eebbeceec9 Introduce the new option -M to allow to set the permissions of
the user's newly created home directory.  If omitted, it's derived
from the current umask.

466c257c1f In the words of the submitter:
This patch explains -F for usershow and groupshow.  Because "groupmod
 ... -F" doesn't do anything, the patch also drops that from groupmod's
 command line args.

d6f907dc7a pw(8) -- a backend utility to manage the user and group databases.
sysinstall's new User&group menu will use it, hence it's a 2.2
candidate despite of providing new functionality.
