- Both are PD packages, sudo is from the Unix System Administration Handbook
- by Nemeth Snyder and Seebass, and op is from Tom Christianson at Convex.
- We use sudo mostly because it is simpler (op supports full regular expressions).
-
- sudo is availible by anon ftp from:
-
- Host boulder.colorado.edu
-
- Location: /pub/sa-book
- DIRECTORY drwxr-xr-x 512 Aug 5 15:19 sudo
-
- And op is likely availible from convex.com somewhere (a quick archie search
- found mostly perl test references! I have an old copy of op if you can't find
- it elsewheres.)
