DESCRIPTION
A user mask is a user-definable interface to the database.
NOTES
To define new users masks modify one of our examples and save it with a different name.
EXAMPLES
See $(ARBHOME)/lib/inputMasks
WARNINGS
If there is an 'Edit enable' toggle at top of the mask, you'll need to check this switch before you make changes to any fields.
If there is no such toggle or if the toggle is checked, all changes will be written to the database without any confirmations.
BUGS
No bugs known.
