  [Long Running Process]

    The forever process will continue to run outputting log messages to the console.

    ex. forever -o out.log -e err.log my-script.js

  [Daemon]

    The forever process will run as a daemon which will make the target process start

    in the background. This is extremely useful for remote starting simple node.js scripts

    without using nohup. It is recommended to run start with -o -l, & -e.

    ex. forever start -l forever.log -o out.log -e err.log my-daemon.js

        forever stop my-daemon.js
