Support sudo insults #107

Open HalosGhost opened 3 years ago

HalosGhost commented 3 years ago

one of sudo's most important features is the ability to insult someone who mistypes a password. While this is frequently a source of humor for the user, a screen locker may actually have some more immediate benefit from such a feature (because it could serve to poke fun at an attacker).

it is probably not reasonable to include sudo's insults themselves as they are included in-binary, but would there be any openness to a similar feature that allows for a list of insults to be provided in a file (à la fortune-mod)?
