count amount of accounts?
Hi,
I am relatively new to Unix and trying to understand as much as I can.
I would like to know if it's possible to count the total number of Unix accounts? If so, can the count be done from any working directory or does it have to be specific to where the accounts are based?
Thanks!

Purple - Perl extension to the libpurple instant messenger library.
SYNOPSIS
use Purple;
ABSTRACT
This module provides the interface for using perl scripts as plugins

DESCRIPTION

The API for the perl interface is very similar to that of the Purple C API, which can be viewed at http://developer.pidgin.im/doxygen/ or
in the header files in the Purple source tree.
FUNCTIONS
@accounts = Purple::accounts
Returns a list of all accounts, online or offline.
@chats = Purple::chats
Returns a list of all chats currently open.
@connections = Purple::connections
Returns a list of all active connections.
@conversations = Purple::conversations
Returns a list of all conversations, both IM and chat, currently open.
@conv_windows = Purple::conv_windows
