Is there another way as with tramp to open files as root within emacs?
(Since I am sure that tramp and I never will be friends in this life)
Regards

If you have setup sudo:

Okay, tramp won, I switched from zsh (which impressing functionality I
don't use anyway) back to bash.
(I now the appropriate lines which are to add to .zshrc, but this time
they don't work – another time they did.)

Hi Henry,
you can use a function like this:
,----
| (defun find-file-as-root (file)
| (interactive "fFindFileAsRoot: ")
| (find-file (concat "/su::" (expand-file-name file))))
`----
Replace /su: by /sudo: if you are a sudo user (Debian?)

No need to drop zsh, just set a proper regex for
tramp-shell-prompt-pattern. This is what works for me:
(setq tramp-shell-prompt-pattern "^[^$>\n]*[#$%>] *\\(\[[0-9;]*[a-zA-Z] *\\)*")
HTH,
Anselm

Thanks Anselm, yes that helps.
Such a thrill: tramp and me are real partners now.
