Yeah, you are ;-)
The commands that operate on UIDs at that prompt don't take the UID as
an argument. You have to select it using the "uid" command. So,
instead of
deluid 1
you would say=20
=09
uid 1
deluid
The "uid" command works like a toggle, selecting unselected UIDs and
unselecting selected ones. More than one uid can be selected at once,
so you can say, for example,
=09
uid 1
uid 2
deluid
to delete UIDs 1 and 2.
