Hi,

looking at the source code of adduser reveals that it also accepts some
short options. Please include these in the manpage along with the 
equivalent long options. I noticed these since short options are in
fact used in maintainer scripts, but not document in the adduser manpage.
AFAICS, the short options are:

-q for --quiet
-h for --help
-v for --verbose

-Ralf.
