Thanks for sharing, this could be interesting indeed. How would you run it in SLY or SLIME then? Do you have an example recipe?

Oh, I missed this e-mail somehow. Here's an example:

(with-input-from-string (s (format nil "mypassword~%")) (uiop:run-program '("script" "-c" "sudo ls") :input s :output :string))

Notes:

1. sudo does have "-S" to prevent it from requiring a pty, but this was the original question, so it's what I used.

2. The parameter to "-c" ("sudo ls" above) will be interpreted by the shell.
