Since version 2.22, NSSM can rotate existing output files when redirecting I/O.\r
\r
Since version 2.22, NSSM can set service display name, description, startup\r
-type and log on details.\r
+type, log on details and dependencies.\r
\r
Since version 2.22, NSSM can manage existing services.\r
\r
timeouts if the application spawns multiple subprocesses.\r

\r
+Console window\r
+--------------\r
+By default, NSSM will create a console window so that applications which\r
+are capable of reading user input can do so - subject to the service being\r
+allowed to interact with the desktop.\r
+\r
+Creation of the console can be suppressed by setting the integer (REG_DWORD)\r
+HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\<service>\Parameters\AppNoConsole\r
+registry value to 1.\r

I/O redirection\r
---------------\r
NSSM can redirect the managed application's I/O to any path capable of being\r
work. Remember, however, that the path must be accessible to the user\r
running the service.\r
\r
-Note that if you set AppStdout and/or AppStderr, applications which attempt\r
-to read stdin will fail due to a combination of factors including the way I/O\r
-redirection is configured on Windows and how a console application starts in\r
-a service context. NSSM can fake a stdin stream so that applications can\r
-still work when they would otherwise exit when at end of file on stdin. Set\r
-AppStdin to "|" (a single pipe character) to invoke the fake stdin.\r

+The DependOnGroup and DependOnService parameters are used to query or set\r
+the dependencies for the service. When setting dependencies, each service\r
+or service group (preceded with the + symbol) should be specified in\r
+separate command line arguments. For example:\r
+\r
+ nssm set <servicename> DependOnService RpcSs LanmanWorkstation\r
+\r
+\r
The Name parameter can only be queried, not set. It returns the service's\r
registry key name. This may be useful to know if you take advantage of\r
the fact that you can substitute the service's display name anywhere where\r
\r
nssm set <servicename> ObjectName <username> correct horse battery staple\r
\r
+The following well-known usernames do not need a password. The password\r
+parameter can be omitted when using them:\r
+\r
+ "LocalSystem" aka "System" aka "NT Authority\System"\r
+ "LocalService" aka "Local Service" aka "NT Authority\Local Service"\r
+ "NetworkService" aka "Network Service" aka "NT Authority\Network Service"\r
+\r
\r
The Start parameter is used to query or set the startup type of the service.\r
Valid service startup types are as follows:\r
Thanks to François-Régis Tardy for French translation.\r
Thanks to Emilio Frini for spotting that French was inadvertently set as\r
the default language when the user's display language was not translated.\r
-Thanks to Riccardo Gusmeroli for Italian translation.\r
+Thanks to Riccardo Gusmeroli and Marco Certelli for Italian translation.\r
Thanks to Eric Cheldelin for the inspiration to generate a Control-C event\r
on shutdown.\r
Thanks to Brian Baxter for suggesting how to escape quotes from the command\r
Thanks to Andrew RedzMax for suggesting an unconditional restart delay.\r
Thanks to Bryan Senseman for noticing that applications with redirected stdout\r
and/or stderr which attempt to read from stdin would fail.\r
+Thanks to Czenda Czendov for help with Visual Studio 2013 and Server 2012R2.\r
