Windows controls services by setting up callbacks that is non-trivial. This
is very different then other systems. This package provides the same API
despite the substantial differences.
It also can be used to detect how a program is called, from an interactive

## BUGS
* Dependencies field is not implemented for Linux systems and Launchd.
* OS X when running as a UserService Interactive will not be accurate.
