swank-daemon supplies a small collection of utility scripts to daemonize

swank[1] under GNU screen[2] at system startup.

Pay attention that "swank-start.lisp" script will try to stop swank via killing

the parent screen process. To avoid any kind of corruption, you may want to

establish some sort of communication system by using interrupts specific to your

lisp implementation.

                                               `-------------------------'

First of all, you may want to check swank-start.lisp if it really starts swank

successfully in your lisp implementation. Otherwise you may need to make extra

modifications.

- Create a new user for the swank process.

  $ useradd useradd --comment "swank user" \

  >                 --home /var/swank      \

  >                 --gid nogroup          \

  >                 --shell /bin/bash swank

  $ mkdir /var/swank                            # See "swank.sh" for "SWANK_HOME".

  $ chown swank:root /var/swank

- Copy files to appropriate locations

  $ cp /path/to/swank.sh /etc/init.d

  $ chmod 755 /etc/init.d/swank.sh

  $ chown root:root /etc/init.d/swank.sh

  $ cd /etc/rc2.d                               # Optional.

  $ ln -s ../init.d/swank.sh S90swank.sh        # Optional.

  $ cp /path/to/swank-start.lisp /var/swank

  $ chown root:root /var/swank/swank-start.lisp

- Don't forget to edit swank.sh suitable to your needs.

- Make a test run.

  $ /etc/init.d/swank.sh start

  $ netstat -plunt                              # See if it's alive.

  $ screen -r "`cat /var/swank/screen-`"  # Don't forget to replace .

  # Looks ok? Then detach it via "C-a z".

  $ /etc/init.d/swank.sh stop
