2.6. GUI Tools for Managing launchd

There is also a free third-party tool called Lingon that can be used to manage launchd. Lingon is available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/lingon/files. Lingon, shown in Figure 2-8, provides users and administrators with the ability to interface with launchd graphically. While Lingon's future is in flux, it is unfortunately the only mature tool that can manage launchd as it does.
