Hi gwr :-) Hmpf. Not one comment on my Eminently Sensible Remarks.
(The ones about how init really does three jobs and should perhaps be
split up...and doing away with init as a program with any intelligence
wired into it, replacing it with a shell script that lets people do
whatever they please. Including a single /etc/rc, including
/etc/init.d, whatever.)
(No, I'm not really feeling sulky. Just putting on a show. :-)
