Sorry I am a newbie in linux. I have already made a console application using lazarus. Now I am going to make this console application become a daemon so that it can be started automatically when my system boots up. I have already edited /etc/init.d/skeleton but I am confused about the script and how to run my console application. Could someone give me an example? here is my init.d script.Thank you.
