  48. Execute the specified \fIcommand\fR when the service status changes. In \fIcommand\fR, \fB%n\fR
  49. will be substituted with the service name and \fB%s\fR will be substituted with a textual

  55. The \fBdinit-monitor\fR program will wait until a monitored service changes status, and execute
  56. the notification command. When execution of the notification command completes, dinit-monitor will
  57. resume monitoring of service status.
  58. .LP
  59. The monitoring provided by \fBdinit-monitor\fR is not intended to be used for system-critical
  60. purposes. If system load is particularly high, for example, notifications may be skipped.
