A while ago, we looked at a fun project named [**“Hollywood”**][2] which turns the Terminal into a Hollywood technical melodrama hacker interface in Ubuntu-like systems. There are few other utilities available, for example **cowsay** , **fortune** , **sl** and **toilet** (!) etc., to kill your free time and keep you entertained! They may not be useful, but these utilities are really entertaining and fun to use. Today, I stumbled upon yet another similar utility named **“SUDO”**. As the name implies, whenever you type Linux commands in capital letters, the SUDO utility will run them as sudo user! Meaning, you need not to type “sudo” in-front of the Linux commands you about to run. Cool, yeah? + +### Install SUDO + +* * * + +**A word of caution:** + +Before installing this (or any utility), take a look at the source code (Link given at the end) and see if there are suspicious/malicious code included to harm your system. Test it in a VM. If you like or found it useful, you can use it in your personal/production systems. + +* * * + +Git clone the SUDO repository: + +``` +$ git clone https://github.com/jthistle/SUDO.git +``` + +This command will clone the contents of SUDO GIT repository and saves them in a directory named “SUDO” in your current working directory. + +``` +Cloning into 'SUDO'... +remote: Enumerating objects: 42, done. +remote: Counting objects: 100% (42/42), done. +remote: Compressing objects: 100% (29/29), done. +remote: Total 42 (delta 17), reused 30 (delta 12), pack-reused 0 +Unpacking objects: 100% (42/42), done. +``` + +Switch to SUDO directory: + +``` +$ cd SUDO/ +``` + +And, install it using command: + +``` +$ ./install.sh +``` + +The command will add the following entries in your **~/.bashrc** file: + +``` +[...] +# SUDO - shout at bash to su commands +# Distributed under GNU GPLv2, @jthistle on github + +shopt -s expand_aliases + +IFS_=${IFS} +IFS=":" read -ra PATHS <<< "$PATH" + +for i in "${PATHS[@]}"; do + for j in $( ls "$i" ); do + if [ ${j^^} != $j ] && [ $j != "sudo" ]; then + alias ${j^^}="sudo $j" + fi + done +done + +alias SUDO='sudo $(history -p !!)' + +IFS=${IFS_} + +# end SUDO +``` + +It will also take a backup of your **~/.bashrc** and save it as **~/.bashrc.old**. You can restore it if anything goes catastrophically wrong. + +Finally, update the changes using command: + +``` +$ source ~/.bashrc +``` + +### Now, type Linux Commands in Capital letters to run them as Sudo user + +Usually, we execute Linux commands that requires sudo/root privileges like below. + +``` +$ sudo mkdir /ostechnix +``` + +Right? Yes! The above command will create directory named “ostechnix” in root (/). Let us cancel this command using **Ctrl+c**. + +Once SUDO is installed, you can **type any Linux command in capital without sudo** and run them. So, you can run the above command like below: + +``` +$ MKDIR /ostechnix + +$ TOUCH /ostechnix/test.txt + +$ LS /ostechnix +``` + +![][3] + +Type Linux Commands In Capital Letters To Run Them As Sudo User + +Please note that **it will not bypass the sudo password**. You still need to type sudo password to execute the given command. It will only help to avoid typing “sudo” in-front of each command. + +* * * + +**Related read:** + + * [**How To Run Particular Commands Without Sudo Password In Linux**][4] + * [**How To Restore Sudo Privileges To A User**][5] + * [**How To Grant And Remove Sudo Privileges To Users On Ubuntu**][6] + * [**How To Find All Sudo Users In Your Linux System**][7] + * [**How To Display Asterisks When You Type Password In Terminal**][8] + * [**How To Change The Sudo Prompt In Linux**][9] + + + +* * * + +Of course, typing “sudo” will take only a few seconds, so it is not a big deal. I must tell this is just fun and USELESS project to pass time. If you don’t like it, go away and learn something useful. If you like it, give it a go and have fun! + +**Resource:** + + * [**SUDO GitHub Repository**][10] + + + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via: https://www.ostechnix.com/type-linux-commands-in-capital-letters-to-run-them-as-sudo-user/ + +作者：[sk][a] +选题：[lujun9972][b] +译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) +校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创编译，[Linux中国](https://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[a]: https://www.ostechnix.com/author/sk/ +[b]: https://github.com/lujun9972 +[1]: https://www.ostechnix.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/sudo-720x340.png +[2]: https://www.ostechnix.com/turn-ubuntu-terminal-hollywood-technical-melodrama-hacker-interface/ +[3]: https://www.ostechnix.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/SUDO-in-action.gif +[4]: https://www.ostechnix.com/run-particular-commands-without-sudo-password-linux/ +[5]: https://www.ostechnix.com/how-to-restore-sudo-privileges-to-a-user/ +[6]: https://www.ostechnix.com/how-to-grant-and-remove-sudo-privileges-to-users-on-ubuntu/ +[7]: https://www.ostechnix.com/find-sudo-users-linux-system/ +[8]: https://www.ostechnix.com/display-asterisks-type-password-terminal/ +[9]: https://www.ostechnix.com/change-sudo-prompt-linux-unix/ +[10]: https://github.com/jthistle/SUDO
