Running process as root from Cocoa

Hi,

I am trying to run some code with root priveleges, specifically to use
task_for_pid to modify (read/write) another process's memory. The
reasoning behind this is that this application is a game trainer. I am
able to get it to work by launching the program with "sudo" but this
is a pain. is there any way to run the program and have an
"authorization" box pop up and ahve the user authorize the actions?

Thanks
Mitchell
