Question
I'm trying to write a script which prints out the users who are loged in.
Printing the output of the "users" command isn't the problem. What I want is to filter out my own username.

users | grep -v (username)

does not work because the whole line in which username exists is suppressed.

If somebody knows the solution, please let me know.
