   too.

          Display  data  about  the  date  of last password change and the
          account  expiration  date  (see  shadow(5)   for   more   info).
          (Requires root privileges.)

   --btmp-file path
          Alternate path for btmp.

   -c, --colon-separate
          Separate info about each user with a colon instead of a newline.

   -e, --export

          names or user IDS).  More than one login may be  specified;  the
          list has to be comma-separated.

          file /etc/login.defs.

   --time-format type
