Hi,

I have been running daemontools on Debain/sarge, but just upgraded to  
runit because it is better supported :)


Something I have be thinking about writing for quite a long time is a  
curses based interface for monitoring and controlled a directory of  
services. Would basically be the output of "runsvstat /var/service/*"  
with a cursor to to choose a service to send control signals to.

Does such a thing already exist? - anyone have any thoughts on such a  
thing ?

Thanks,

nick.

I think this would be a useful tool to illustrate the power of runit to
those who aren't familiar with it yet. Just be sure to leave it taking
the path to the services (/var/service) as an argument. Or at least
allow overriding the default though command line arguments.
