Startup script does not work under FreeBSD about kestrel

i don't think pgrep is on linux. :(

that's kinda maddening that they expose a --running option that doesn't actually work. do you think we should file a bug?

interestingly, pgrep is on my gentoo box & daemon is not, heh. I don't know if it's a bug, as far as I can tell FreeBSDs daemon is a different tool than on linux. In fact, it seems like it even ignores the --stdout and --stderr flags.

What if I just replaced pgrep with some "ps | grep" action?

[robey]

oh! i bet the BSD "daemon" is an entirely different beast. that's probably the root problem.

you can get the libslack "daemon" here: http://libslack.org/daemon/

Thanks, I'll check that out
