If the -X option is given, the program
is running in foreground mode for testing purposes:

        $ ./my-app -X
        ...

=item stop

will find the daemon's PID in the pidfile and send it a SIGTERM signal. It
will verify $App::Daemon::kill_retries times if the process is still alive,
with 1-second sleeps in between.

To have App::Daemon send a different signal than SIGTERM (e.g., SIGINT), set

    use POSIX;
    $App::Daemon::kill_sig = SIGINT;

Note that his requires the numerial value (SIGINT via POSIX.pm), not a
string like "SIGINT".
