(1) I would like to request changes to catalina.sh: - Save PID in a file upon starting Tomcat - Remove the said PID file upon stopping it.
Reason for request: This makes it possible to reliably, and programatically to check the existence of the Tomcat java process. "ps" command is not able to display full command and arguments. It is difficult to tell what the process is, programatically.

I do not see they are needed. JRE distribution do not have these two binaries.
