Hello autossh maintainers,

Just wanted to express my support for including the patch in the
autossh package.  I was about to write an initscript for autossh for
my  own use before finding this bug report, but I've found the
attached script serves my purposes quite well and the quality seems
very good to me.  I'm sure other users from benefit from it as well.

If it's not worth installing the init script by default, I'd recommend
including it in /usr/share/doc/autossh/examples as a reference.

The only suggestion I have is to avoid calling not_configured in the
init script when $START is 0, especially if the init script is
installed by default.  Users who do not want to run autossh as a
daemon are unlikely to want to see an attention-grabbing 3-line
warning about it on every boot.  Convention seems to be to print a
single-line "Starting autossh: not configured" or similar.

Thanks for considering, and thanks to LluĂ­s for writing it,
Kevin
