Here's an example init.d script for Spiffy the webserver, for use on Debian derivatives (created by Mario Domenech Goulart)

#! /bin/sh
# -*- shell-script -*-

# This is /etc/init.d/spiffy on Debian systems
# It assumes you have a "spiffy.scm" script in /usr/local/libexec and a log directory in /var/log/spiffy

# Select which "csi" program to use; defaults to the one in $PATH
CSI=csi
# Use a longer trace buffer and a larger nursery size (optional)
CSI_ARGS="-:s1m -:a200"

DATE_FORMAT="+%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S"

CONFIG_FILE="/usr/local/libexec/spiffy.scm"
LOG_DIR="/var/log/spiffy"

    fi

      echo "Cannot find or read the configuration file. Please create or check the permissions of the following file: \"$CONFIG_FILE\"."
      exit 0
