+B<1.> collectd will try to import the B<readline> module to give you a decent
+way of entering your commands. The daemonized collectd won't do that.

+
+B<2.> collectd will block I<SIGINT>. Pressing I<Ctrl+C> will usually cause
+collectd to shut down. This would be problematic in an interactive session,
+therefore this signal will be blocked. You can still use it to interrupt
+syscalls like sleep and pause but it won't generate a I<KeyboardInterrupt>
+exception either.
+
+To quit collectd send I<EOF> (press I<Ctrl+D> at the beginning of a new line).
