It provides a replacement for the service-managing capabilities of SysV init (or any other init) with a powerful dependency-based system with a convenient interface. Shepherd may also be used by unprivileged users to manage per-user daemons (e.g., [[tor]], [[privoxy]], [[mcron]], etc.). It is written in [[Guile]] and is configured and extended using [[Guile]]. |

GNU Shepherd
https://www.gnu.org/software/shepherd/
System service manager
The GNU Shepherd is a daemon-managing daemon, meaning that it supervises the execution of system services, replacing similar functionality found in typical init systems. It provides dependency-handling through a convenient interface and is based on GNU Guile.
Shepherd may also be used by unprivileged users to manage per-user daemons (e.g., tor, privoxy, mcron, etc.).
This is a GNU package:shepherd
