[Gambas-user] Access global variable from other .class

[Jussi Lahtinen]

Weird that there isn't any standard about this, or is there..?
I think every linux distribution should have link to it's graphical version
of sudo/su, with uniform name like GUIsudo.
Then you could always call it without knowing which environment is used.
