+s6 is a small suite of programs for UNIX, designed to allow process
+supervision (a.k.a service supervision), in the line of daemontools
+and runit, as well as various operations on processes and daemons. It
+is meant to be a toolbox for low-level process and service
+administration, providing different sets of independent tools that can
+be used within or without the framework, and that can be assembled
+together to achieve powerful functionality with a very small amount of
+code.
+
+skalibs is only required at build time, not run time.
+
+
+Some hints for using this package on Slackware:
+
+I added the following to my /etc/inittab:
+
+# S6
+sv:12345:respawn:/command/s6-svscanboot 
+
+Then did a 'telinit q' to start it.
+
+Note that the default s6-svscanboot provided disables polling
+(-t0). So after adding a new service to /service you should call:
+
+/command/s6-svscanctl -a /service
