NAME

       ownerstring - view/change the owner string on a Toshiba laptop

SYNOPSIS

       ownerstring [ -prs ]

DESCRIPTION

       ownerstring  allows  the  owner string on a Toshiba laptop to be viewed
       and changed. The ownerstring is either printed on stdout or  read  from
       stdin.  It is recomended when setting the ownerstring that you create a
       textfile containing the string that you wish to use and  then  use  the
       standard file redirection facilities of your shell to redirect the file
       to stdin.

       The maximum length of the ownerstring is 512  characters.  The  program
       automatically  truncates  longer  strings.  For laptop models which are
       unsupported a suitable error message is provided.

OPTIONS

       -p, --print
              Print the current ownerstring on stdout.

       -r, --remove
              Remove any ownerstring that may be set.

       -s, --set
              Set the ownerstring using the information on stdin.

BUGS

       None that I know about.
