  Description     : Golang library for parsing /etc/passwd entries

 Golang library etcpwdparse
 .
 This library provides simple access to the entries in the /etc/passwd
 file.
 .
 It was made for programs that need to be able to pull home directories,
 user id's and the like but do not want the cgo-dependence of the core
 os/user package.
 .
 The only real caveat is that it doesn't pull user entries from other
 sources like PAM or LDAP since it only operates by reading the file on
 disk.
