Sorry, Jonathan, that I replying _your_ message, my reply has nothing to 
do with it of any of your other posts, but rather with some posts by 
some other posters. I really have to say this:

This whole thread - some posts in it that is - reminds me the old truth: 
RTFM. Namely, Read The F.. (damn) Manual!

It is really hard to help those who don't care to read the man page. No 
matter how many times you repeat that su stands for "substitute user", 
and that the command as usually may have various options, and "-" is one 
of these options, and what is the difference between invoking command 
with or without it.

I would suggest that continuing this thread is counter-productive.

PS pasting excerpt from "man su" on my FreeBSD workstation:

SU(1)                   FreeBSD General Commands Manual 
SU(1)

NAME
      su - substitute user identity

SYNOPSIS
      su [-] [-c class] [-flms] [login [args]]

...

      -l      Simulate a full login.  ...


      -       (no letter) The same as -l.
