it might be worth noting that when the command run by
styxlisten exits, styxlisten kills the listener, assuming the
command is no longer around to take calls.
FWIW, for a simple export, i usually do the equivalent:
listen addr {export /&}
in this case the & is necessary, as listen doesn't listen
for any more calls while the command is running.
this is actually useful behaviour - when i want to mount
the namespace of a machine i can't run a listener on
(e.g. because some firewall blocks incoming calls)
i can do:
listen -s addr {mount -A /fd/0 /n/remote; raise break}
and on the exporting machine:
dial addr {export /&}
it's quite flexible.
