Description

This module provides a persistent boot payload by creating a launch item, which can be
a LaunchAgent or a LaunchDaemon. LaunchAgents run with user level permissions and are triggered
upon login by a plist entry in ~/Library/LaunchAgents. LaunchDaemons run with
elevated privilleges, and are launched before user login by a plist entry in the ~/Library/LaunchDaemons directory.
In either case the plist entry specifies an executable that will be run before or at login.
