Thanks Doug, I should have caught that.

No worries. :)

4. Simplify the status and stop methods down to one function that takes
an argument.

This works mostly well, but I notice that the "restart" command
doesn't work,

What output does it give?

and was going to add a restart_cmd telling it to issue a
prosodyctl stop followed by prosodyctl start.

That's probably reasonable.

I kind of think it would
look cleaner to have start_cmd, stop_cmd and restart_cmd rather than
prosody_cmd and restart_cmd. Thoughts?

The idea behind prosody_cmd is that it can handle all of the normal arguments in one method, rather than needing to duplicate essentially the same thing numerous times. That's what functions are for. :)

The way start is handled currently is actually sort of clever, which is why I did not suggest changing it. However I _think_ the following will work, but it should be tested:

start_cmd="prosody_cmd start"
stop_cmd="prosody_cmd stop"
restart_cmd="$start_cmd $stop_cmd"
status_cmd="prosody_cmd status"

This will also require removing command_args. I've updated the version at http://people.freebsd.org/~dougb/prosody.in.txt accordingly.

If the restart_cmd above does not work, then the solution you suggested is fine. I should also point out that I don't particularly care if you and/or the maintainer decide to use the prosody_cmd idea or not. I have no authority to do anything other than suggest, although in this case _I_ happen to think it's a rather clever suggestion. :)
