💅 VISUDO(8) — the sudo-rs glow-up 💅

okay bestie, so this page lives in the sudo-rs manual, section 8, and it's literally all about visudo. sit down, hydrate, and let's get into it 🫶

✨ NAME ✨

visudo — safely edit the sudoers file. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🔥

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

visudo [-chqsV] [[-f] sudoers]

(yes, -q and -s are chillin' in that flag cluster — the page below spells out -c, -f, -h and -V, so that's what we're covering, no cap.)

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

visudo edits the sudoers file in a safe manner, similar to vipw(8). it's giving responsible main character energy — the whole point is you don't rawdog your sudoers file, you let visudo handle it. 💅

🌸 OPTIONS 🌸

  • -c, --check — only check if there are errors in the existing sudoers file. no editing, no touching, just a pure vibe check on what's already there. ✨
  • -f sudoers, --file=sudoers — instead of editing the default /etc/sudoers, edit the file you specified as sudoers instead. pick your own adventure, icon behaviour. 🎀
  • -h, --help — show a help message. classic, dependable, always there for you. 🫶
  • -V, --version — display version information and exit. cute little drive-by, then it's gone. 👑
