C library that eases the writing of UNIX daemons

    libdaemon is a lightweight C library that eases the writing of UNIX
    daemons. It consists of the following parts:

    * A wrapper around fork() which does the correct daemonization
      procedure of a process
    * A wrapper around syslog() for simpler and compatible log output to
      Syslog or STDERR
    * An API for writing PID files
    * An API for serializing UNIX signals into a pipe for usage with
      select() or poll()
    * An API for running subprocesses with STDOUT and STDERR redirected
      to syslog.

    APIs like these are used in most daemon software available. It is not
    that simple to get it done right and code duplication is not a goal.
