So, I've been re-reading the docs for omprog and I think the resume stuff
happens in response to stdin being read or not read.  It sounds like
exiting when there is a connection error might be the wrong approach.  All
of the config values are around resuming an existing process rather than
restarting one that has exited.  I'm going to re-write my app to manage
reconnections on it's own.  Have it stop reading stdin if it loses it's
websocket connection, and start reading again when it regains connectivity.
 That way I can take advantage of the resumeRetryCount and resumeInterval
properties too.

Would this be a better approach or is my existing approach considered to be
valid?

Thanks for the help.
