Comment on Creating a Perl Daemon in Ubuntu by Andrew Ault

@oznero:

I modified the begin log file @ line 63 to make the log file “hot” (removed buffering) so it will write to the log as it runs.

please correct me if im wrong, but…

if you call exit in the parent process(at line 48 “exit if $pid;”) before the $pidfile object has been created, the END{} block is called and tries to cleanup $pidfile before it has been created? thus throwing an error/warning?

Hi Nathanael,

It would be wonderful if Simon Cran’s source could be turned into an open source project.

MyZ80 has, in my opinion, always been the best and most sophisticated of the CP/M emulators. Of course, to call it a CP/M emulator does it a bit of a disservice. It’s really a 280 emulator (the most complete and faithful Z80 emulator available) on which you can load and run any z80-compatible OS (CP/M3, ZP/M, ZS-DOS, . My favorite of the CP/M derivatives was NZCOM, the autoloading, modular CP/M, with advanced features MS-DOS never achieved.
