Example of signaling and creating a python daemon

[David Pratt]

Hi jepler!  This is a nice example.  I will study it so I can better 
see what each part is doing.  I may have a couple of questions once I 
have done this because I have not yet daemonized a process and I want 
to be sure I understand before I attempt to run anything I create.

Many thanks.
David
