Re: init file questions
The language of `reload' and `force-reload' bothers me a bit. There
must be a better way of distinguishing between the actions, especially
if `force-reload' is required (and hence is more likely to be used) and
`reload' is not (and hence less likely).
How about the following instead:
soft-reload => cause the service to reread its configuration iff
supported (same as `reload' above)
reload => cause the service to perform `refresh' above if it's
supported, otherwise perform `restart' (same as
`force-reload' above).
