What the Heck?

perp is a persistent process supervisor and service management
framework, similar in purpose to the venerable daemontools
package, while providing a modern update with many advantages:

 * easy configuration: in place service activation and no
   symlinks!

 * everthing administered in /etc/perp

 * fully FHS compatible

 * scanner/supervisor/controller runs as a single process

 * all context switching for multiple supervisor processes is
   eliminated

 * service reset capability

 * pretty good troff -man documentation

 * colorized(!) service lister, readable timestamps...

 * no slashpackage, no slashcommand, no slashdoc...
