+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.IR who
+utility shall list various pieces of information about accessible
+users. The domain of accessibility is implementation-defined.
+.P
+Based on the options given,
+.IR who
+can also list the user's name, terminal line, login time, elapsed time
+since activity occurred on the line, and the process ID of the command
+interpreter for each current system user.
+.SH OPTIONS
+The
+.IR who
+utility shall conform to the Base Definitions volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017,
+.IR "Section 12.2" ", " "Utility Syntax Guidelines".
+.P
+The following options shall be supported. The metavariables, such as
+<\fIline\fP>, refer to fields described in the STDOUT section.
+.IP "\fB\-a\fP" 10
+Process the implementation-defined database or named file with the
+.BR \-b ,
+.BR \-d ,
+.BR \-l ,
+.BR \-p ,
+.BR \-r ,
+.BR \-t ,
+.BR \-T
+and
+.BR \-u
+options turned on.
+.IP "\fB\-b\fP" 10
+Write the time and date of the last system reboot. The system reboot
+time is the time at which the implementation is able to commence
+running processes.
+.IP "\fB\-d\fP" 10
+Write a list of all processes that have expired and not been respawned
+by the
+.IR init
+system process. The <\fIexit\fP> field shall appear for dead processes
+and contain the termination and exit values of the dead process. This
+can be useful in determining why a process terminated.
+.IP "\fB\-H\fP" 10
+Write column headings above the regular output.
+.IP "\fB\-l\fP" 10
+(The letter ell.) List only those lines on which the system is waiting
+for someone to login. The <\fIname\fP> field shall be
+.BR LOGIN
+in such cases. Other fields shall be the same as for user entries
+except that the <\fIstate\fP> field does not exist.
+.IP "\fB\-m\fP" 10
+Output only information about the current terminal.
+.IP "\fB\-p\fP" 10
+List any other process that is currently active and has been previously
+spawned by
+.IR init .
+.IP "\fB\-q\fP" 10
+(Quick.) List only the names and the number of users currently logged
+on. When this option is used, all other options shall be ignored.
+.IP "\fB\-r\fP" 10
+Write the current
+.IR run-level
+of the
+.IR init
+process.
+.IP "\fB\-s\fP" 10
+List only the <\fIname\fR>, <\fIline\fR>, and <\fItime\fR> fields.
+This is the default case.
+.IP "\fB\-t\fP" 10
+Indicate the last change to the system clock.
+.IP "\fB\-T\fP" 10
+Show the state of each terminal, as described in the STDOUT section.
+.IP "\fB\-u\fP" 10
+Write ``idle time'' for each displayed user in addition to any other
+information. The idle time is the time since any activity occurred on
+the user's terminal. The method of determining this is unspecified.
+This option shall list only those users who are currently logged in.
+The <\fIname\fP> is the user's login name. The <\fIline\fP> is the name
+of the line as found in the directory
+.BR /dev .
+The <\fItime\fP> is the time that the user logged in. The
+<\fIactivity\fP> is the number of hours and minutes since activity last
+occurred on that particular line. A dot indicates that the terminal has
+seen activity in the last minute and is therefore ``current''. If more
+than twenty-four hours have elapsed or the line has not been used since
+boot time, the entry shall be marked <\fIold\fP>. This field is useful
+when trying to determine whether a person is working at the terminal or
+not. The <\fIpid\fP> is the process ID of the user's login process.
+.SH OPERANDS
+The following operands shall be supported:
+.IP "\fBam\ i\fR,\ \fBam\ I\fR" 10
+In the POSIX locale, limit the output to describing the invoking user,
+equivalent to the
+.BR \-m
+option. The
+.BR am
+and
+.BR i
+or
+.BR I
+must be separate arguments.
+.IP "\fIfile\fR" 10
+Specify a pathname of a file to substitute for the
+implementation-defined database of logged-on users that
+.IR who
+uses by default.
+.SH STDIN
+Not used.
+.SH "INPUT FILES"
+None.
+.SH "ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES"
+The following environment variables shall affect the execution of
+.IR who :
+.IP "\fILANG\fP" 10
+Provide a default value for the internationalization variables that are
+unset or null. (See the Base Definitions volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017,
+.IR "Section 8.2" ", " "Internationalization Variables"
+for the precedence of internationalization variables used to determine
+the values of locale categories.)
+.IP "\fILC_ALL\fP" 10
+If set to a non-empty string value, override the values of all the
+other internationalization variables.
+.IP "\fILC_CTYPE\fP" 10
+Determine the locale for the interpretation of sequences of bytes of
+text data as characters (for example, single-byte as opposed to
+multi-byte characters in arguments).
+.IP "\fILC_MESSAGES\fP" 10
+.br
+Determine the locale that should be used to affect the format and
+contents of diagnostic messages written to standard error.
+.IP "\fILC_TIME\fP" 10
+Determine the locale used for the format and contents of the date and
+time strings.
+.IP "\fINLSPATH\fP" 10
+Determine the location of message catalogs for the processing of
+.IR LC_MESSAGES .
+.IP "\fITZ\fP" 10
+Determine the timezone used when writing date and time information. If
+.IR TZ
+is unset or null, an unspecified default timezone shall be used.
+.SH "ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS"
+Default.
+.SH STDOUT
+The
+.IR who
+utility shall write its default format to the standard output in an
+implementation-defined format, subject only to the requirement of
+containing the information described above.
+.P
+XSI-conformant systems shall write the default information to the
+standard output in the following general format:
+.sp
+.RS 4
+.nf
+
+<\fIname\fR>\fB[\fR<\fIstate\fR>\fB]\fR<\fIline\fR><\fItime\fR>\fB[\fR<\fIactivity\fR>\fB][\fR<\fIpid\fR>\fB][\fR<\fIcomment\fR>\fB][\fR<\fIexit\fR>\fB]\fR
+.fi
+.P
+.RE
+.P
+For the
+.BR \-b
+option, <\fIline\fP> shall be
+.BR \(dqsystem boot\(dq .
+The <\fIname\fP> is unspecified.
+.P
+The following format shall be used for the
+.BR \-T
+option:
+.sp
+.RS 4
+.nf
+
+"%s %c %s %s\en" <\fIname\fR>, <\fIterminal state\fR>, <\fIterminal name\fR>,
+ <\fItime of login\fR>
+.fi
+.P
+.RE
+.P
+where <\fIterminal\ state\fP> is one of the following characters:
+.IP "\fR+\fR" 8
+The terminal allows write access to other users.
+.IP "\fR\-\fR" 8
+The terminal denies write access to other users.
+.IP "\fR?\fR" 8
+The terminal write-access state cannot be determined.
+.IP "\fR<space>\fR" 8
+This entry is not associated with a terminal.
+.P
+In the POSIX locale, the <\fItime\ of\ login\fP> shall be equivalent in
+format to the output of:
+.sp
+.RS 4
+.nf
+
+date +"%b %e %H:%M"
+.fi
+.P
+.RE
+.P
+If the
+.BR \-u
+option is used with
+.BR \-T ,
+the idle time shall be added to the end of the previous format in an
+unspecified format.
+.SH STDERR
+The standard error shall be used only for diagnostic messages.
+.SH "OUTPUT FILES"
+None.
+.SH "EXTENDED DESCRIPTION"
+None.
+.SH "EXIT STATUS"
+The following exit values shall be returned:
+.IP "\00" 6
+Successful completion.
+.IP >0 6
+An error occurred.
+.SH "CONSEQUENCES OF ERRORS"
+Default.
+.LP
+.IR "The following sections are informative."
+.SH "APPLICATION USAGE"
+The name
+.IR init
+used for the system process is the most commonly used on historical
+systems, but it may vary.
+.P
+The ``domain of accessibility'' referred to is a broad concept that
+permits interpretation either on a very secure basis or even to allow a
+network-wide implementation like the historical
+.IR rwho .
+.SH EXAMPLES
+None.
+.SH RATIONALE
+Due to differences between historical implementations, the base options
+provided were a compromise to allow users to work with those
+functions. The standard developers also considered removing all the
+options, but felt that these options offered users valuable
+functionality. Additional options to match historical systems are
+available on XSI-conformant systems.
+.P
+It is recognized that the
+.IR who
+command may be of limited usefulness, especially in a multi-level
+secure environment. The standard developers considered, however, that
+having some standard method of determining the ``accessibility'' of
+other users would aid user portability.
+.P
+No format was specified for the default
+.IR who
+output for systems not supporting the XSI option. In such a
+user-oriented command, designed only for human use, this was not
+considered to be a deficiency.
+.P
+The format of the terminal name is unspecified, but the descriptions of
+.IR ps ,
+.IR talk ,
+and
+.IR write
+require that they use the same format.
+.P
+It is acceptable for an implementation to produce no output for
+an invocation of
+.IR who
+.BR mil .
+.SH "FUTURE DIRECTIONS"
+None.
