gksudo -k "xterm --help" works fine here:
$ gksudo -k "xterm --help"
usage: xterm [-/+132] [-C] [-Sccn] [-T string] [-/+ah] [-/+ai] [-/+aw]
[...]
Type xterm -help for a full description.
To run multiple commands, you need to invoke a shell. The following opens two
xterm windows here:
gksudo -k "sh -c 'xterm; xterm'"
It does not work with sudo, too:
$ sudo "xterm; xterm"
sudo: xterm; xterm: command not found
I'm closing this as invalid. Please reopen it, if I've misunderstood
anything.
