.TH SINIT 8 sinit-VERSION
.SH NAME
sinit \- The suckless init
.SH DESCRIPTION
sinit is a simple init.  It is configured by modifying `config.h'
and recompiling the code.
.SS Signal handling
sinit will respond to the following set of signals:
.IP USR1
Default action is to initiate the shutdown sequence by
executing `/bin/rc.shutdown poweroff'.
.IP INT
Default action is to initiate the reboot sequence by
executing `/bin/rc.shutdown reboot'.
.IP CHLD
Reap children.
.SS General considerations
Calling the aforementioned scripts directly might or might not
work in your case.  For example if any process in your session
has stale filesystem references then it is likely your init scripts
will fail to unmount the filesystem cleanly.  It is recommended to
signal sinit via a wrapper script.
