Description

I'd like to run a process as super user. Is it possible for monu to ask credentials to run processes that need special permissions?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Research macOS Authorization Services to request superuser privileges for launching a process. Look into the AuthorizationExecuteWithPrivileges function or the Service Management framework.
