Sudo avoid password prompt in Linux Mint
Its a big time saver avoiding entering the password for sudo. To avoid this on Linux Mint :
Open 'visudo'
# sudo visudo
At the
end
of the file place (replace 'cwishaw' with your username)
cwishaw ALL=(ALL:ALL) NOPASSWD: ALL
Press 'Ctrl + x' to save the file
Open a new Terminal and sudo commands will no longer request a password
