README.local

     The following key points apply to old-style or simplified scripts in
     /usr/local/etc/sv.local.d/:

     ++	 Scripts are only executed if they are executable.  Any other files or
	 directories present within the	directory are silently ignored.

     ++	 When a	script is executed at boot time, it is passed the string
	 `start' as its first	and only argument.  At shutdown	time, it is
	 passed	the string `stop' as its first and only argument.  All `sv/'
	 scripts are expected to handle	these arguments	appropriately.	If no
	 action	needs to be taken at a given time (either boot time or shut-
	 down time), the script	should exit successfully and without producing
	 an error message.

     ++	 The scripts within each directory are executed	in lexicographical
	 order.	 If a specific order is	required, numbers may be used as a
	 prefix	to the existing	filenames, so for example 100.foo would	be
	 executed before 200.bar; without the numeric prefixes the opposite
	 would be true.
