Well, as I showed in my other post, sudo does return the exit status of the command it runs. Unfortunately, the case where the command returns 1 seems to be indistinguishable from the case where sudo returns 1. I guess that little bit of ambiguity could be a big bummer. You might be able to get around it on a case by case basis by using wrappers for your commands. -sauoq "My two cents aren't worth a dime.";
