`doas` is a minimal replacement for the venerable `sudo`. It was
initially [written by Ted Unangst](http://www.tedunangst.com/flak/post/doas)
of the OpenBSD project to provide 95% of the features of `sudo` with a
fraction of the codebase.
+This fork insults you, similar to `sudo`.

## Building and installation discouragements
There are a few steps you have to carefully consider before building and installing
or pam is configured incorrectly.

-* Use the configure script to configure the opendoas.
-* Use the default make target to build the software.
+* Use the configure script.
+* Use the default make target.
* If you really want to install a setuid binary that depends on
pam being correctly configured, use the make install target
to install the software.
A good starting point is probably the distribution maintained `/etc/pam.d/sudo`
file.
