simple porting question

[influx]

Hi all,

I'm having my first stab at porting a Perl application intended for Linux onto OSX. I've managed to muddle through pretty well so far, until now.

As I say, this is a basic question.

My perl app won't run, and halts at this line:

/etc/rc.d/init.d/functions

obviously, this is no surprise. But, what is the equivalent under Mac OS X? Does anyone have any advice?

sorry for the newbie questions - but I've got to learn somewhere.

Thanks in advance,

Kerin

/etc/rc.d/init.d/functions is a shell script. you can use it on osx/darwin.
