Merb Init Script

[Ezra Zygmuntowicz]

	Do you have more then one merb app? I usually don't like to put more  
then one app per init.d script. But if you do need to put them all in  
one init.d script. I think the best way woudl be top place a shell  
script somewhere that can start all yoru merbs appropriately. ANd  
then just have the init.d script call that shell script.

	Or even better yet, use monit instead of init.d scripts ;)
