I write these scripts for my own use, and you may need to tweak them slightly to suit your needs.
Never run a script you can't read or understand. Comments can be found in the scripts, usually explaining them block-by-block. Below is my personal use cases for the scripts, to provide further insight into how I use them and how they might be useful to you.
This script was made on Ubuntu when creating a few users across multiple hosts. Syntax requires at least 2 arguments when running the script, otherwise help text will be output warning of correct usage and available options. The script can be used to configure sudo on a new user if the script itself is ran with sudo. Otherwise, creating a default user with or without a password is possible without sudo. If the script is ran on an existing user or a userID that is already in use is passed, no changes will happen in user-creation but you may still allow the user to sudo and change their password.
Didn't configure sudo, and don't want to do so manually? Re-run the script on the existing user just as above, and accept the prompt for sudo configuration.
I usually run this script within whatever directory I'm working in, hence the infinite loop, I leave the script running until I'm done with my work and move to a new directory / cmake project.
To use this script, copy it to a safe directory where we can store previous / future vimrc configurations and run it as a user with sudo privelages. See below for example commands and output.
