Guys,

      One thing I miss with Arch are init-script shortcuts for starting and stopping processes. rc-commands really help cut down on typing. For example, all suse did was to create links to the files in /etc/rc.d/... with a naming convention of rc<init script name>. {snip}

If you're doing this, why not just add /etc/rc.d to your path?

Then the rc scripts would conflict with the programs they call.
