-# This explorer returns script code string for running a command with su
-# or sudo, whichever it founds. If searches the command in the order of
-# first su and then sudo if su is not found.
-# If no su nor sudo is found then it returns string script code to run
-# bare command.
-# It uses two arguments, first user and the second command to run.
-# If the result string is assigned to foo it can be used in code
-# generation as:
-# echo "$foo user command"
