Liam ProvenSUDO command for DOS:
An implementation of sudo for DOS, to run the given command with full privileges.

<- this is extremely funny if you are smarter than the US legislators wanting age verification in OSes.
Corb_The_Lesser@lproven Way back in stone tablet times, there was a commercial product called MKS Toolkit that delivered most of the basic text-based Unix tool set for DOS. Don't recall if sudo was in there (why bother?) but there was an awk, vi, and a Korn shell. A make implementation, too, I think. Pipes were simulated as DOS does, via files.
kramaker@lproven In this book:
...the author Gordon has this gem, as applicable today as then:
"[Bollman] somehow managed to persuade the American government that
his was the only "safe" design of truss, and at one time its use was
made compulsory. This may not have been quite so difficult a
legislative feat as one might suppose, since it came to be accepted
for many years as a practical working principal, by professional
engineers, that the technical ignorance of the American Congressman
could safely be regarded as bottomless."
