Title: Proposal: add the daemon command to brew.  see http://libslack.org/daemon/

from the README:

daemon - turns other processes into daemons

Daemon turns other processes into daemons. There are many tasks that need to be performed to correctly set up a daemon process. This can be tedious. Daemon performs these tasks for other processes. This is useful for writing daemons in languages other than C, C++ or Perl (e.g. /bin/sh, Java).
