Gnome Xsu 0.2.4 for Gnome 2.x a.k.a. xsu2-0.2.4


Description
===========
Gnome Xsu is an interface for the command `su - username -c command` in
Gnome. When the user executes xsu, he/she will be prompted for a
command, a username and a password. If the username and password are
correct xsu will execute the command as the entered user. So if the
username was root, then the command will be executed as root.


Changes

Gnome 2.0 version : Initial version (first port)
Gnome 1.0 version : Only a few minor memleak fixes

Notes
=====
I will nolonger maintain the Gnome 1.0 version. I will only fix urgent
bugs if any.
