        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:

    $ tdesu -h
    $ tdesu -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>.

    for the exact terms.
