|
|
The additional layer <scm|db-users.scm> allows you to specify read, write
|
|
and administration permissions for database entries. There are two main
|
|
types of users of <TeXmacs> databases: individual users and groups. Groups
|
|
may delegate permissions to individual users or other groups. In addition,
|
|
there are two special users <scm|"root"> (or <scm|#t>) and
|
|
<scm|"anonymous"> (or <scm|#f>).
