# Improved Sudo for Fish Shell
An improved `sudo` command for fish shell.
## Features
**Enter a superuser shell with a single word.**
No fiddling with environment variables or having to type `sudo fish`.
Just type `sudo` and press enter!
```fish
sudo
```
**Press CTRL+S to toggle between a sudo and non-sudo command.**
One of the most convenient features of bash is the `sudo !!` substitution.
While fish may not support `!!`, it can do one better with key bindings.
If you run a command and find out you need to run it as a superuser, simply press UP and CTRL+S to get that command with the word sudo in front of it.
```fish
apt-get update # No permission.
sudo apt-get update # After pressing UP and CTRL+S.
```
## Install
With [fisher](https://github.com/jorgebucaran/fisher):
```fish
fisher install eth-p/fish-plugin-sudo
```
### Hotkey Support
The Ctrl+S hotkey is not added by default. In order to bind the hotkey, add the following to your `config.fish` file:
```fish
bind \cs '__ethp_commandline_toggle_sudo.fish'
```
