By default, each command try to access by using default key, but if you want to switch aws account, you can set others access key like below.

default: { access_key_id: 'WURLWEKRJWEIRLSKDJF', secret_access_key: '8fjjwlergJU/fhafHgsdfaoLfl/HsdleiO' }
another_profile: { access_key_id: 'HOEUWLFJSDLFSUIARF', secret_access_key: '7f78LFDLGh/FJDojhg23dklsdHSDldkdi7' }

Commands:
  ec2iam create user_name   # create iam user with name 'user_name' who belongs to ReadOnly group.
  ec2iam delete! user_name  # delete iam user with user_name perfectly.
  ec2iam help [COMMAND]     # Describe available commands or one specific command
