-# * creates user account
-# * creates home directory
-# * creates authorized_keys2
-# * adds user to group 'tilde' (why?)
-# * sets shell
-# * creates .ssh directory
-# * creates .irssi directory
-# * creates templatized .irssi config file (irssi isn't even default anymore...)
-# * creates hardcoded .twurlrc file (why not skel?)

-# some of this stuff is pointless and the actually required stuff is:
-# * create user account (useradd)
-# * create home dir (useradd)
-# * create .ssh/authorized_keys2 (need functions for this
-# * set shell (chsh)
-# * create .twurlrc (just use /etc/skel)

+# things to consider:
 # * what happens when a user wants their name changed?
