Description:

System_Daemon is a PHP class that allows developers to create their
own daemon applications on Linux systems.

The class is focussed entirely on creating and spawning standalone
daemons, and for example includes:
- Methods to generate OS-specific startup-files (init.d) (currently
only Debian/Ubuntu are supported), so that your application gets
started on reboot as well,
- Methods for logging purposes,
- Simple syntax,
- Support for PEAR's Log package,
- Can run with or without PEAR (PEAR adds more elegance and
functionality),
- Default signal handlers, but optionally reroute signals to your own
handlers,
- Log levels comply with PEAR_LOG_ levels but are called
SYSTEM_DAEMON_LOG_ for (in)dependency reasons,
- Set options like max RAM usage

In PEAR status of this package is: stable.
