CFMApp to run App as root--didn't work
Authored by: hysterion on Oct 08, '02 12:59:51AM
Ned... it works for me, in both 10.1.5 and 10.2.1, both in the original form with quotes, and in rob's form above with backslash escapes. (The backslashes arise naturally by dropping the BBEdit icon onto Terminal, but in my experience, submitting them to Geeklog is asking for trouble :-) Maybe you typed `alias' twice? So far as I can tell (by grepping the code: line 231 here, line 313 here), the only thing that would trigger your error message is if we try to alias something to `alias' (or `unalias') itself -- which of course would get us hosed. E.g.:
[localhost:~] fz% alias alias emacs
alias: Too dangerous to alias that.
