		<h1>The system-ml program</h1>
		<p>
			system-ml automatically creates logging service
			<a href="https://skarnet.org/software/s6-rc/s6-rc-compile.html#source">source directories</a>
			for longrun services in the
			<a href="//0x53.net/software/goetia/confdir.html#system">system configuration directory</a>.
			To create the logging service source directories,
			system-ml uses
			<a href="./longrun-make.html">longrun-make</a> internally.
		</p>
		<h2>Interface</h2>
		<pre>     system-ml</pre>
		<ul>
			<li>
    			system-ml takes no arguments.
			</li>
			<li>
    			It deletes the <code>src/generated-logger</code> subdirectory of the
				<a href="//0x53.net/software/goetia/confdir.html#system">system configuration directory</a>.
			</li>
			<li>
    			It scans the <code>src</code> subdirecotry of the
				<a href="//0x53.net/software/goetia/confdir.html#system">system configuration directory</a>
				for longrun services.
			</li>
			<li>
    			It checks for each longrun it detects,
				whether its source directory contains a file <code>no-ml</code>.
				If this file exits, this longrun is skipped in the subsequent logger generation.
			</li>
			<li>
    			It generates a logging service source directory at
				<code>src/generated-logger/<var>@longrun@</var>-log</code>
				in the <a href="//0x53.net/software/goetia/confdir.html#system">system configuration directory</a>.
				It does so in parallel for each longrun <code><var>@longrun@</var>-srv</code> it found.
			</li>
		</ul>
		<h2>Exit codes</h2>
		<ul>
			<li>
    			Since system-ml is an
				<a href="https://skarnet.org/software/execline/">execline</a>
				script, it exits with an approximation
				of employed program that failed.
			</li>
			<li>
    			system-ml mostly uses
				<a href="https://skarnet.org/software/execline/">execline</a>
				and
				<a href="https://skarnet.org/software/s6/">s6</a>
				software, the exit behaviour of which can be looked up on
				their respective pages.
			</li>
			<li>
    			See also:
				<a href="https://skarnet.org/software/execline/exitcodes.html">execline exit code handling</a>.
			</li>
		</ul>
		<h2>Options</h2>
		<ul>
			<li>
    			There are no options to system-ml.
			</li>
		</ul>
		<h2>Notes</h2>
		<p>
    		The logger services created by this script
    		will drop privileges to
    		<code><var>@loguser@</var></code>,
    		which must exist at runtime.
    		(see <a href="//0x53.net/software/goetia/logdir.html">log directory</a>).
