feature request - daemon about plumbum HOT 3 CLOSED

i suppose you use http://pypi.python.org/pypi/daemon rather than http://pypi.python.org/pypi/python-daemon
anyway, there are two problems with adding it to plumbum directly:

• it won't work on windows, and plumbum tries to be as cross-platform as possible
• daemons are complex beings. sometimes you need a PID files or intercepts certain signals, etc. plumbum can't do it for you automagically -- it could just enter a default daemon context for you, but how does that help? saving two lines of code?

for instance

from plumbum import cli

class MyApp(cli.Application):
    daemonize = cli.Flag("-d")

    def main(self):
        if self.daemonize:
            from daemon import basic_daemonize
            basic_daemonize()
        ...

if __name__ == "__main__":
    MyApp.run()

from plumbum.
