 Wow, I think I'm going to open a zoo for root-checking methods:)
 

Okay, how about this:

cat /usr/local/bin/getuid
#!/bin/sh
USERNAME=`whoami`
IFS=:
set `grep ^$USERNAME /etc/passwd`
echo $3

 A while ago there has been a thread about KDE and Qt's licence;  some

  this? I.e:  has someone began to code or has the idea been dropped? Just
  wondering... 
 
 Even if we wrote one, I doubt the KDE guys, especially Matthias Ettrich, would
 be willing to use it.  Really an unfortunate situation, IMHO.  :-(

Berate me for missing the obvious, but couldn't KDE just be compiled with
a QT clone for Debian?  What am I missing?
