I just posted a small script I have been working on to start and stop the server with different options available and descriptive help.

I noticed that in the Wiki tutorial on a Linux installation that two scripts are used, but I think that it would be better to condense those scripts so one only has to type "eqemu --start" or "eqemu --stop"

I was wondering if anyone could take a look at it for problems or suggest any improvements. I posted it on the Wiki but the formatting seems a little messed up so sorry for that.

Thanks :D

I did the same thing when I switched from Windows to Linux, made a combo script I hacked apart from other start/stop services. It's posted around here somewhere, but never made it to the Wiki. Thanks for posting yours!

Its seems that I can not use the <nowiki> and <pre> tags in the wiki which disable the wiki formatting, so the code is comming out all messed up. :( Instead I'll post the code here.
