It should be more consistent with normal services, though cmdloop isn't 
a true daemon. I tried to write the /etc/init.d/cmdloopd so it didn't 
rely on redhat specific functions and hopefully will work on all 
linux-type platforms.

I'm hoping to check it in today. Then if it works ok maybe we'll do 
release 0.6.2 .
