The supervise_me command is a simple supervisor for multiple process.
It reads a list of commands to execute from STDIN and starts each one, and then monitors their execution. If one of the program dies, the supervisor will restart it after a small 1 second pause.
You can restart the supervised process with Ctrl-C. If you hit Ctrl-C again before the supervised process restart, the supervisor will exit. This allows you to use one tap of Ctrl-C to restart, and a double tap to exit.

The script accepts no arguments on the command line.

The script doesn't have any command line options.

You can set the SUPERVISE_ME_DEBUG environment variable to 1 to show debug information about the internal workings of the supervisor.
