Back, demon, from whence you came
Tuesday, August 05, 2003

How do you know if the company that you work for is making evil software? Here's the on-screen help that I got for the command-line parameters:
	-D       Become a daemon (default)

-i Run interactive (not a daemon)

Well at least they give you the option of not becoming a demon.

For clarity, I like to add diagrams to the guides that I write. Here's my concept for this one:

standalone daemon

Hold on. The command-line help says "daemon", not "demon". Never mind, then.

A "daemon" is a server process, apparently. I guess this means that my company doesn't necessarily serve the powers of evil after all. That's a relief, because I kind of like it here.
