doas

6.3p13

Simple sudo alternative to run commands as another user

This is the FreeBSD port of the OpenBSD "doas" command. The doas program allows a regular user to run commands as another user (usually root). The doas command is a simplified (hopefully more secure) version of the "sudo" command and offers an easier to read/modify configuration.
