Details

There are some broken examples in the man page for rc.d.

For example:

rc.d start --auto --stopped
Starts all stopped scripts which are started at startup.

This and some other examples lack a list of rc scripts to act on. We can either take these examples out of the man page, or we can implement the functionality. It shouldn't be hard to implement.
This task depends upon

Thanks for the reminder! I lost track of these things when my laptop was stolen. Applied and pushed. Please let me know if there was anything I missed.
