Command who
Description The "who" command lets you display the users that are currently logged into your Unix computer system.
Examples who

This is the basic who command with no command-line arguments. It shows the names of users that are currently logged in, and may also show the terminal they're logged in on, and the time they logged in.

who | more

In this example the output of the who command is piped into the more command. This is useful when there are a lot of users logged into your computer system, and part of the output of the who command scrolls off the screen. See the more command for more examples.

who -a

The -a argument lists all available output of the who command for each user.
