+ KDESU: A KDE front end for `su'.
+
+What is it?
+
+ KDE su is a graphical front end to the Unix `su' utility. It allows you
+ to run programs as another user by entering their password.
+ It is _not_ a setuid root program, it runs completely unprivileged.
+ The system's program `su' is used for acquiring privileges.
+
+Usage:
+
+ $ kdesu -h
+ $ kdesu -c konsole
+
+Please see the HTML documentation!
+
+Notes and Acknowledgements:
+
+ Credits go to Pietro Iglio. He was the original author of KDE su
+ (until version 0.3). I was writing a similar program when I
+ found out that KDE su already existed. We decided to merge our
+ projects and that I would continue with it.
+
+ If you find any bug of have a suggestion, feel free to contact me
+ at <kde@geeksrus.net>.
+
+
+License:
+
+ KDE su comes under the "Artistic License". See the file LICENSE.readme
+ for the exact terms.
