acpid

[Vladimir Dronnikov]

Hello, list!

Attached is the patch which introduces new applet: acpid.
It reads /proc/acpi/event (or whatever file specified via -e option)
line-by-line and spawns run-parts /etc/acpi/<EVENT> handler.
It is just my busyboxed experience in handling laptop special buttons
but it can seamlessly be used to handle any ACPI event.

As I completely dislike the way the big acpid uses to configure (a
bunch of files hardly going further then specify a trivial regexp), it
is not a drop-in replacement. However, if an interest comes up I fix
that.

Please, comment and consider applying.

TIA,
