Simple Root Actions Menu

This is menu that I use, I thought it would be useful for some people so I decided to share it.

It is very simple, it contains 8 menu entries:
-delete as root ("sram_d.desktop", for all files and folders)
-edit as root ("sram_e.desktop", for all text files)
-open as root ("sram_o.desktop", for all folders)
-run as root ("sram_r.desktop", for all executable files)
-backup as root ("sram_b.desktop", for all files)
-rename as root ("sram_rn.desktop", for all files)
-chmod as root ("sram_cm.desktop", for all files and folders)
-chown as root ("sram_co.desktop", for all files and folders)

From version 1.3 "Simple Root Actions Menu" comes packed within shell script file - Installer script. The installer gives you ability to define various parameters of the installation, like whether you want to install the menu for konqueror or dolphin, what text editor to use, whether to use kdesu or gksu, etc. Version 2 (and greater) supports KDE 4. Version 3 (and greater) dropped support for KDE3.

Installation

Download and unpack the content and run "sram_install" in your shell ("./sram_install")
Follow menu instructions.
Or you can use operands "-i" for installation or "-u" for uninstallation directly.

Be sure to read README file first!!!
