Sudosh version 1.0.0 now available

Sudosh version 1.0.0 is now available.  Sudosh has been ported from Perl
to C.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/sudosh/
http://sudosh.sourceforge.net/sudosh-1.0.0.tar.bz2

Major changes since Sudosh version 0.7.0:

o Sudosh has been ported to C because I wanted to take advantage of
  pty devices because of their ability to sit between the user's keyboard
  and a program, in this case a shell.

o Sudosh only logs keystrokes (command-lines) to syslog

o Sudosh supports input and output logging to a local file.  Operation is
  identical to the script(5) command.

sudosh is a filter.  sudosh takes advantage of pty devices in order to sit
between the user's keyboard and a program, in this case a shell.

sudosh was designed specifically to be used in conjunction with sudo.  sudosh
allows the execution of a root shell with logging.  Every command the user
types within the root shell is logged as well as the output.

How is this different than "sudo -s" or "sudo /bin/sh" ?

Using "sudo -s" or other methods doesn't log commands typed to syslog.
Generally the commands are logged to a file such as .sh_history and if you
use a shell such as csh that doesn't support command-line logging you're
out of luck.

sudosh fills this gap.  No matter what shell you use, all of the command
lines are logged to syslog (including vi keystrokes.)
