If the user argument is not provided, username of the invoking user is used; the user argument is ignored if lchfn is run set-uid to a different user.

Entering an empty string (by pressing Enter) at a prompt is interpreted as accepting a default value; to erase an attribute (or to use an empty string as the attribute value), enter a single dot character.
