Does anybody have something for (GNU) Emacs which makes it
easy to setup a formatted-screen data entry facility?
E.g. say you wanted to provide a self-explanatory procedure
for adding a new user to a Un*x system, by setting up some
sort of spec in an Emacs (Lisp?) file, and saying
emacs -l edit-new-user
you might get a screen like
username: user-id no.:
group-id no: user's full name:
home dir: shell name:
and any old naive user could rattle away at it.
