Yes. I also would appreciate a clear HOWTO for that kind of thing, being new
to Macs and already missing the simple (and sometimes simplistic) /etc/init.d

Remember the Unified Field Theory? Well, forget it. Physicists have
pretty much thrown in the towel on unifying gravity with the other
elemental forces, so now we have the Standard Model, which says that
everything works together in intricate harmony except gravity, which is
