Hi, I haven't done this yet, sorry.  Somehow I'm reluctant to make these
changes to the command line option of the sv program, I'm afraid it gets
too complex.

I guess ./run and ./finish almost always will be scripts, more precisely
shell scripts.  runsv as of now maintains two files supervise/stat and
supervise/pid.  How about removing these files, and add a single one
containing the informations discussed here?:

./supervise/info:
<state> <want> <pid> <uptime> <runrc> <finishrc>

Shell script then can do

 set `cat ./supervise/info` ""
 state=$1
 want=$2
 pid=$3
 uptime=$4
 rrc=$5
 frc=$6

or so.

Regards, Gerrit.
