Robin, Marius - Thanks for your responses. I learn a little something
everyday! ;-)
Background to my question. Yesterday morning I switched my screensaver
setup to a specific selection, "Fontglide", instead of random choice
selection. There after when the screensaver kicked in it gave
continuing readouts from the system monitor - Kernel in operation, time
booted, time lapsed from boot, number of users, system load averages.
These readouts reported i user until 10:20 - 10:30 p.m. when it started
reporting 2 users. At that point, i used
$ who -H
and got readouts like those reported to the list.
