+""" Library to implement a well-behaved Unix daemon process.
+
+    This library implements the well-behaved daemon specification of
+    :pep:`3143`, "Standard daemon process library".
+
+    A well-behaved Unix daemon process is tricky to get right, but the
+    required steps are much the same for every daemon program. A
+    `DaemonContext` instance holds the behaviour and configured
+    process environment for the program; use the instance as a context
+    manager to enter a daemon state.
+
+    Simple example of usage::
+
+        import daemon
+
+        from spam import do_main_program
+
+        with daemon.DaemonContext():
+            do_main_program()
+
+    Customisation of the steps to become a daemon is available by
+    setting options on the `DaemonContext` instance; see the
+    documentation for that class for each option.
