a script to add mastodon follows to lists using madonctl

edit-lists.sh

#!/bin/bash

# 1. Get and build madonctl from https://github.com/McKael/madonctl.git and login
#
# 2. set this to your server name, as local accounts are stored without @server.name:
SERVER="chaos.social"
#
# 3. Fetch account and list name->id maps:
# ./edit-lists.sh setup
#
# 4. Add people to LISTS,  where LISTS contains lines with either:
#    ListName or @account@server.name
#
# 5. Issue commands to add those people to lists (without "doit" for a dry run):
# ./edit-lists.sh doit < LISTS
