Example 1: Server
addCommandHandler("aclObjectList",function(player,command,aclGroup)
	if aclGroup == '' then
		outputChatBox("Please add the aclGroup you want the list of.", player)
		outputChatBox("Syntax: /aclObjectList aclGroup", player)
		return
	end
	local objects = aclGroupListObjects(aclGetGroup(aclGroup))
	for k,v in ipairs(objects) do
		outputChatBox("ACL LIST: "..aclGroup.." #"..k.." Object: "..v,player)
	end
end)


This example outputs through the command "getAdminAccounts" all accounts added to the "Admin" group.

Example 2: Server
function outputAdminGroupAccounts(player)
	local admins = {} -- creates the table in which will be added the accounts of "Admin" group
	local group = aclGetGroup("Admin")
	-- should return the "aclgroup" if the "Admin" group be found in ACL
	if not group then return end
	for _, object in ipairs(aclGroupListObjects(group) or {}) do
		local objType = gettok( object, 1, string.byte('.') )
		-- objType: gets the object type only, which can be either "user" or "resource"
		if objType == "user" then -- checks if it's a player account
			local _name = gettok( object, 2, string.byte('.') ) -- ignores "user." by separating that from the account name
			table.insert( admins, _name ) -- adds the account name to the "admins" table
		end
	end
    for i, name in ipairs(admins) do -- loop through the table "admins"
        outputChatBox(tostring(i).." : "..tostring(name), player, 140, 220, 140)
        -- output will look like this: "1 : John"
