Yeah, I like that I can just type 'herd status' now, thanks! Sometimes I also type 'deco doc dmd list-actions'. > maybe ‘shepherd’ is OK after all. > > WDYT? It seemed natural to me to rename 'dmd' service to 'shepherd' service. But I like 'root' more! So if people agree on naming the main service the 'root' instead of 'shepherd', I will send an updated patch. OTOH 'herd load root foo.scm' looks strange for me. I would prefer 'herd load foo.scm', but it is a separate issue, I think. -- Alex
