+=head1 NAME
+
+ Daemon::Generic::While1 - Daemon framework with default while(1) loop
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+ @ISA = qw(Daemon::Generic::While1);
+
+ sub gd_run_body {
+ # stuff
+ }
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+This is a slight variation on L<Daemon::Generic>: a default
+C<gd_run()> provided. It has a while(1) loop that calls
+C<gd_run_body()> over and over. It checks for reconifg and
+and terminate events and only actions them between calls
+to C<gd_run_body()>.
+
+Terminate events will be forced through after
+C<$Daemon::Generic::force_quit_delay> seconds if
+C<gd_run_body()> doesn't return quickly enough.
+
+=head1 SUBCLASS METHODS REQUIRD
+
+The following method is required to be overridden to subclass
+Daemon::Generic::While1:
+
+=over 15
+
+=item gd_run_body()
+
+This method will be called over and over. This method should
+include a call to C<sleep(1)> (or a bit more). Reconfig events
+will not interrupt it. Quit events will only interrupt it
+after 15 seconds.
+
+=back
+
+=head1 ADDITIONAL METHODS
+
+The following additional methods are available for your use
+(as compared to L<Daemon::Generic>):
+
+=over 15
+
+=item gd_sleep($period)
+
+This will sleep for C<$period> seconds but in one-second
+intervals so that if a SIGINT or SIGHUP arrives the sleep
+period can end more quickly.
+
+Using this makes it safe for C<gd_run_body()> to sleep for
+longer than C<$Daemon::Generic::force_quit_delay> seconds
+at a time.
+
+=back
+
+=head1 ADDITIONAL MEMBER DATA
+
+The following additional bits of member data are defined:
+
+=over 15
+
+=item gd_sigint
+
+The time at which an (unprocessed) SIGINT was recevied.
+
+=item gd_sighup
+
+The time at which an (unprocessed) SIGHUP was recevied.
