Here's how I did it in the Main class of a system utility that manages
the kernel cpufreq settings:
<CODE>
' Gambas module file
PUBLIC SUB Main()
DIM Ret AS String
IF System.User.Id <> 0 THEN
EXEC ["which", "gksu"] TO Ret
IF InStr(Ret, "gksu") THEN
EXEC ["gksu", Application.Path &/ "vcpufreq.gambas"]
ELSE
EXEC ["which", "kdesu"] TO Ret
IF InStr(Ret, "kdesu") THEN
EXEC ["kdesu", Application.Path &/ "vcpufreq.gambas"]
ELSE
PRINT "No gksu or kdesu available (try vcpufreq in a root terminal)..."
ENDIF
ENDIF
QUIT
ELSE
Global.root = TRUE
ENDIF
FMain.Show ' Show main form...
END
</CODE>
