[18:58] <jY> is there anyway to tell upstart to send a HUP signal to a process to restart?
[19:03] <JanC> jY: why for restart instead of for reload?
[19:04] <jY> JanC: i'm a upstart noob.. so i didn't know there was a reload
[19:05] <JanC> jY: I was somewhat surprised; most people complain that right now "reload" can't use anything but SIGHUP  ;)
[19:06] <jY> we'll i'm happy if it can only do that
[19:07] <JanC> anyway, you can read about the available commands in 'man initctl'
[19:08] <JanC> also, see the cookbook mentioned in the /topic for lots of useful info & tips
[19:47] <lucs> Meep.
[19:48] <lucs> Just wanted to confirm that yes, "\" at the end of lines in "script/end script" sections does get passed correctly to sh, and thus we can have continuation lines like that.
[20:47] <SpamapS> lucs: thanks for investigating. :)
[20:48]  * lucs is now a happy camper with his nice readable scripts :)
[20:48] <JanC> SpamapS: it would have been a bug if it didn't work  ;)
[20:48] <SpamapS> totally
[20:49] <SpamapS> I'm a little incredulous that anything requiring \'s is "readable" .. but to each his own
[20:49] <JanC> also depends on the language used, I suppose
[20:56] <lucs> Example of my "\" usage: http://paste.scsys.co.uk/183832
[21:00] <SpamapS> lucs: indeed, *that* is quite a bit more readable, and I hadn't thought about doing that.
[21:02] <lucs> It makes code longer instead of wider, but like Steven Right, "I'm not afraid of heights, I'm afraid of widths." :)
[21:03] <lucs> (explaining why he liked to walk his dog around the ledge of his apartment building)
[21:08] <JanC> could also be useful with complex conditional statements in some languages
