sysvinit scripts have ended up where almost every large project that spans many years ends up: #!/bin/sh # do a standard action here idea.get() # do some weird magic hacked user-defined shit here ??? # do a few more standard things here profit(!) sysvinit, like X11, needs a massive overhaul and a sprint clean. systemd may or may not be a good replacement -- Alan McKinnon alan.mckin...@gmail.com
