Thanks, scott. I'm still examining this before I run it. I'm confused on where it is accepting input. I think it is the while ((cmd | getline) but I'm not familiar with getline and "getent group" will simply list all groups in the system, not the specific ones I'm determining. Still reading through it but wanted to give my thanks in advance.
