EEXXIITT VVAALLUUEE
Upon successful execution of a program, the exit status from _s_u_d_o will
simply be the exit status of the program that was executed.
Upon successful execution of a command, the exit status from ssuuddoo will be
the exit status of the program that was executed. If the command
terminated due to receipt of a signal, ssuuddoo will send itself the signal
that terminated the command.
Otherwise, ssuuddoo exits with a value of 1 if there is a
configuration/permission problem or if ssuuddoo cannot execute the given
command. In the latter case the error string is printed to the standard
command. In the latter case, the error string is printed to the standard
error. If ssuuddoo cannot stat(2) one or more entries in the user's PATH, an
error is printed on stderr. (If the directory does not exist or if it is
not really a directory, the entry is ignored and no error is printed.)
This should not happen under normal circumstances. The most common
reason for stat(2) to return ``permission denied'' is if you are running
an automounter and one of the directories in your PATH is on a machine
that is currently unreachable.
