In fact I started with -C, and reverted to -c because that is what
BSD/OS uses for the same option. I know -c is used in some other
Unixen to specify a command. If more ppl feel this is more painfull
than being incompatible with BSD/OS's su, please yeel and I'll
chaneg it to -C (or -L or whatever).
