23.0.91; need ability to run emacs --daemon in the foreground |
Date: |

This is a feature request more than a bug: I would really like to see
the ability to run the emacs server daemon ("emacs --daemon") in the
foreground. This would be very useful. I would like to be able to
start/control this daemon with a service supervisor (i.e. runit [0]).
This would allow me to easily start the daemon on system start up, and
have access to the daemon from all xsessions and virtual terminals.
I would also be prefer to be able to specify daemon parameters as
well, such as the location of the socket file.
I find the new server to be incredibly useful. It is a really great
new feature. I would just like to see these small changes so that I
can really turn my editor into the server it needs to be.
Thanks for all the great work, and let me know if I can provide any
additional information.
