Bedework v3.5 manual: adduser documentation not quite right.

Status: new

Reported by: bleibson Assigned to: johnsa
Priority: minor Milestone: Bedework 3.7
Component: manuals/documentation Version:
Keywords: Documentation Cc:

On page 14, the 3.5 manual reads:

4. Enter one of the following commands (Linux or Windows): bedework/build/quickstart/linux/adduser userid Firstname Lastname userid@mysite.edu password

However, adduser doesn't have the execute bit on. In fact, among the scripts in the linux directory, only bw has that bit on. The doc should either say "sh bedework/build/..." or the execute bit should be turned on. In that case, I'd recommend changing the documentation to read "./bedework/build/..." That's more natural to Unix people.
