Sure, you can call exec() on any executable file by passing the path to the file, just like you can with Node's exec().

@jorangreef I'm getting an issue with this line of code
sudo.exec('sh ./script.sh', options, function(error, stdout, stderr)
I get an error:

An error occured: Error: Command failed: /usr/bin/sudo -n -E -- sh ./script.sh' sh: ./script.sh: No such file or directory

I'm not sure why but it seems to be looking for the file in the sudo directory instead of the current one.

@GregTheGreek You are relying on current working directory and also passing a relative path (./script.sh).

From the Usage section of the README:

Your command should not depend on any current working directory or
environment variables in order to execute correctly, and you should
take care to use absolute paths and not relative paths.

We don't make guarantees about these things because we use different methods on various platforms to do the elevation.
