DESCRIPTION

18       Change/Remove the security category for each file or user.
19
20       Use +/- to add/remove categories from a file or user.
21
22       Note:  When  removing  a  category you must specify '--' on the command
23       line before using the -Category syntax.  This tells  the  command  that
24       you  have  finished  entering options and are now specifying a category
25       name instead.
26
27
28       -d     delete the category from each FILE/USER.
29
30       -L     list available categories.
