Hi all,

Sorry for the spam. Using `shepherd -s shepherd-socket` and can start
shepherd and communicate via `herd -s shepherd-socket`. I see nothing in
~/xcape.log yet, however.  It does spawn many xcape processes and it seems
like it found $DISPLAY, however. Any pointers on how to fix the original
service definition?

Thanks,

John
