Cleaned up some messages, added a check to remove a leftover popd file
from /var/mail, added a routine to delete the removed user's files from /tmp, /var/tmp, & /var/tmp/vi.recover, and added code to kill any running processes owned by the removed user). I've also added a flag for non-interactive execution, cleaned up the man page, and adjusted my address. Submitted by: ghelmer@cs.iastate.edu (Guy Helmer)

+.Sh BUGS
+.Nm rmuser
+does not comprehensively search the filesystem for all files
+owned by the removed user and remove them; to do so on a system
+of any size is prohibitively slow and I/O intensive.
+.Nm rmuser
+also is unable to remove symbolic links that were created by the
+user in
+.Pa /tmp
+or
+.Pa /var/tmp
+as symbolic links on 4.4BSD filesystems do not contain information
+as to who created them. Also, there may be other files created in
+.Pa /var/mail
+other than
+.Pa /var/mail/username
+and
+.Pa /var/mail/.pop.username
+that are not owned by the removed user but should be removed.
+.Pp
+.Nm rmuser
+has no knowledge of NIS (Yellow Pages), and it operates only on the
+local password file.
