7.PP
8A Print Quota editor for PyKota.
9.PP
10command line usage :
11.IP
12edpykota [options] user1 user2 ... userN
13.IP
14edpykota [options] group1 group2 ... groupN
15.PP
16options :
17.TP
18\fB\-v\fR | \fB\-\-version\fR
19Prints edpykota's version number then exits.
20.TP
21\fB\-h\fR | \fB\-\-help\fR
22Prints this message then exits.
23.TP
24\fB\-a\fR | \fB\-\-add\fR
25Adds users and/or printers if they don't
26exist on the Quota Storage Server.
27.TP
28\fB\-d\fR | \fB\-\-delete\fR
29Deletes users/groups from the quota storage.
30Printers are never deleted.
31.TP
32\fB\-c\fR | \fB\-\-charge\fR p[,j]
33Sets the price per page and per job to charge
34for a particular printer. Job price is optional.
35If both are to be set, separate them with a comma.
36Floating point values are allowed.
37.TP
38\fB\-o\fR | \fB\-\-overcharge\fR f
39Sets the overcharging factor applied to the user
40when computing the cost of a print job. Positive or
41negative floating point values are allowed,
42this allows you to do some really creative
43things like giving money to an user whenever
44he prints. The number of pages in a print job
45is not modified by this coefficient, only the
46cost of the job for a particular user.
47Only users have a coefficient.
48.TP
49\fB\-i\fR | \fB\-\-ingroups\fR g1[,g2...]
50Puts the users into each of the groups
51listed, separated by commas. The groups
52must already exist in the Quota Storage.
53.TP
54\fB\-u\fR | \fB\-\-users\fR
55Edit users print quotas, this is the default.
56.TP
57\fB\-P\fR | \fB\-\-printer\fR p
58Edit quotas on printer p only. Actually p can
59use wildcards characters to select only
60some printers. The default value is *, meaning
61all printers.
62You can specify several names or wildcards,
63by separating them with commas.
64.TP
65\fB\-G\fR | \fB\-\-pgroups\fR pg1[,pg2...] Adds the printer(s) to the printer groups
66pg1, pg2, etc... which must already exist.
67A printer group is just like a normal printer,
68only that it is usually unknown from the printing
69system. Create printer groups exactly the same
70way that you create printers, then add other
71printers to them with this option.
72Accounting is done on a printer and on all
73the printer groups it belongs to, quota checking
74is done on a printer and on all the printer groups
75it belongs to.
76.TP
77\fB\-g\fR | \fB\-\-groups\fR
78Edit users groups print quotas instead of users.
79.TP
80\fB\-p\fR | \fB\-\-prototype\fR u|g Uses user u or group g as a prototype to set
81print quotas
82.TP
83\fB\-n\fR | \fB\-\-noquota\fR
84Doesn't set a quota but only does accounting.
85.TP
86\fB\-r\fR | \fB\-\-reset\fR
87Resets the actual page counter for the user
88or group to zero on the specified printers.
89The life time page counter is kept unchanged.
90.TP
91\fB\-R\fR | \fB\-\-hardreset\fR
92Resets the actual and life time page counters
93for the user or group to zero on the specified
94printers. This is a shortcut for '\-\-used 0'.
95.TP
96\fB\-l\fR | \fB\-\-limitby\fR l
97Choose if the user/group is limited in printing
98by its account balance or by its page quota.
99The default value is 'quota'. Allowed values
100are 'quota' 'balance' 'quota\-then\-balance' and
101\&'balance\-then\-quota'.
102WARNING : quota\-then\-balance and balance\-then\-quota
103are not yet implemented.
104.TP
105\fB\-b\fR | \fB\-\-balance\fR b
106Sets the user's account balance to b.
107Account balance may be increase or decreased
108if b is prefixed with + or \-.
109WARNING : when decreasing account balance,
110the total paid so far by the user is decreased
111too.
112Groups don't have a real balance, but the
113sum of their users' account balance.
114.TP
115\fB\-S\fR | \fB\-\-softlimit\fR sl
116Sets the quota soft limit to sl pages.
117.TP
118\fB\-H\fR | \fB\-\-hardlimit\fR hl
119Sets the quota hard limit to hl pages.
120.TP
121\fB\-U\fR | \fB\-\-used\fR usage
122Sets the pagecounters for the user to usage pages;
123useful for migrating users from a different system
124where they have already used some pages. Actual
125and Life Time page counters may be increased or decreased
126if usage is prefixed with + or \-.
127WARNING : BOTH page counters are modified in all cases,
128so be careful.
129NB : if 'usage' equals '0', then the action taken is
130the same as if \fB\-\-hardreset\fR was used.
131.IP
132user1 through userN and group1 through groupN can use wildcards
133if the \fB\-\-add\fR option is not set.

170\f(CW$ edpykota --printer hpcolor --noquota jerome\fR
