aeternum

aeternum is a very small program that should daemonize any process on a Linux system.

Installation

 git clone https://github.com/AvianFlu/aeternum.git
 cd aeternum
 make
 sudo make install

This should make aeternum available on your PATH.

Usage

 aeternum -o [outfile] -e [errfile] -- [program] [args...]

outfile is a file path to which the program's stdout should be redirected.

errfile is a file path to which stderr should be redirected.

If either is not provided, /dev/null will be used.

The -- option is used to delimit aeternum arguments from arguments to the process being spawned. Everything after -- will be passed to execvp().
