The user-rc program

The user-rc program is a thin convenience wrapper around s6-rc doing nothing more then pointing it to the right livedir.

Read the page of s6-rc to understand what this utility does.

Interface

     user-rc ... see s6-rc ...

• user-rc reads the USER environment variable, if it is empty it exits 100.
• It reads the USERTREE environment variable, if it is empty it exits 100.
• It runs s6-rc with the appropriate livedir option.

Exit codes

• 100 if a critical environment variable is missing.
• Since user-rc is a thin wrapper around s6-rc it behaves almost exactly like it.
• See also: execline exit code handling.

Options

• user-rc takes exactly the same options as s6-rc.
