Apple

It worked correctly and perfectly.

on getAdminPrivs()

set AppleScript's text item delimiters to " "

do shell script "id -G -n"

"admin" is in (text items of the result)

if the result then return -- current user is admin

try

do shell script "sw_vers" with administrator privileges

return -- admin username & password entered

end try

error number -128 -- kill this application

end getAdminPrivs -----------------------------------

Use it like this ...

on run

my getAdminPrivs()

-- your code here

-- cannot be run

-- without admin privileges

end run
