<para>
<command>Odfuserfield</command> is a program that will list or change
the user variable declarations in an OpenDocument file.
There are two kinds of variables in OpenDocument. Simple variables can
take different values at different positions, throughout a document.
User variables have the same value throughout a document. Due to the latter's
global nature it is safe to change them with an external application.
