## Admin management commands
### adminadd
Adds a new admin to PBot.
## User management commands
### useradd
Adds a new user to PBot.
Usage: `adminadd <name> <channel> <hostmask> <level> <password>`
Usage: `useradd <account name> <channel> <hostmask> [level] [password]`
Parameter | Description
--- | ---
`<name>` | A unique name to identify this account (usually the `nick` of the admin, but can be any identifier).
`<channel>` | Which channel the admin can administrate; use `global` for all channels. This field cannot be changed without removing and re-adding the admin.
`<hostmask>` | What hostmask the admin is recognized/allowed to login from (e.g., `somenick!*@*somedomain.com` or `*@unaffiliated/someuser`). This field cannot be changed without removing and re-adding the admin.
`<level>` | An integer representing the admin's level of privileges. See [admin-levels](#admin-levels).
`<password>` | The password the admin will use to login (from /msg!). A password is not required if the `autologin` [metadata](#admin-metadata-list) is set for the admin; however, a dummy password still needs to be set.
`<account name>` | A unique name to identify this account (usually the `nick` of the user, but it can be any identifier).
`<channel>` | The channel this user belongs to; use `global` for all channels. This field cannot be changed without removing and re-adding the user.
`<hostmask>` | The hostmask from which this user is recognized/allowed to login from (e.g., `somenick!*@*.somedomain.com` or `*!*@unaffiliated/someuser`). This field cannot be changed without removing and re-adding the user.
`[level]` | An integer representing the user's level of privileges. See [admin-levels](#admin-levels). Defaults to `0` if omitted (i.e., a normal unprivileged user).
`[password]` | The password the user will use to login (from `/msg`, obviously). Generates a random password if omitted. Users may view and set their password by using the [`my`](Commands.md#my) command.
### adminrem
Removes an admin from PBot. You can use the name field or the hostmask field that was set via `adminadd`.

Usage: `adminrem <channel> <name or hostmask>`

### Listing users
To list user accounts, use the `list users` command. This is not an admin command, but
it is included here for completeness.

When used in a channel, it will list only the admins for that channel, plus all
global admins. When used from private message, it will list all admins from
all channels, including global admins.
When the optional `[channel]` argument is provided, only users for that channel
will be listed; no global users will be listed.
When `[channel]` is omitted and the command is used in a channel, it will list
the users for that channel, plus all global users.
When `[channel]` is omitted and the command is used from private message, it will
list all users from all channels, including global users.
