James and I came up | with this one morning so I'm not saying it's the ultimate | solution, we could have overlooked plenty. true. i can only think of a stupid one: rename all su/sudo/... apps and put instead links to your wrapper that is configrable and runs the renamed desired one. | > i still think, this should be dealt by the apps using desktop | > entries ... :-) | | So do I...but how long will that take? i do not know the state of it but the freedesktop people should be shaken and reminded on it. i know that kde and probably gnome as well has started putting things like "run as another user" but they probably didnt consider putting it in desktop files... so either we specify it in desktop files and everybody does it the same way, or everybody reinvents the wheel... or even better for you - everybody uses your wrapper :) anyway... not much apps are having this issue, so it's managable to edit them by hand :) - D -- .·´¯`·.¸.·´¯`·.¸¸.·´¯`·.¸.·´¯`·.¸.·´¯`·.¸.·´¯`·.¸¸.·´ ° ° ° ° ° ° ><((((º> ° ° ° ° ° <º)))>< <º)))><
