I found a (lengthy) guide to doing this but it is for gksu which is gone. I have to imagine there’s an easy way. I am running Ubuntu.

    I have no idea what you are talking about. The answer to your question is: this is impossible and this is done for purpose. Don’t try to work in linux like in windows.

        It’s not attitude they are giving you. It’s strong recommendation. It’s the strong recommendation of the entire Linux community.

        Sudo is different than run as admin and is not intended to be used to do things the way Windows does them.
