-cnumber
number is between 1 and 255, and it signifies the number of
supervise in a supervise chain in which each supervise supervises
the previous supervise (in the supervise chain). The upper limit,
255, can be changed with the -l flag. By default, each supervise
in the chain supervises in dir/n, where n is the position of the
supervise in the chain. If number is 1, then the subdirectory 1
is omitted.
-llimit
The maximum number of supervise that can be started in a supervise
chain. Default is 255.
-S supervise supervises itself as well as program. By default, a
selfsupervising supervise supervises in dir/self.
-Z same as -S but no program is supervised; only supervise supervises
itself.
