## Elevator Pitch
Again, this is a fork! and probably with reduced functionality as the original from Jesse Duffield. It was created to resolve a simple problem, work fully with podman and don't depend on how docker works and the socket.
This is published as is. Compilation works and lazypodman runs on Linux without needing a socket present to monitor your containers.
Original elevator pitch below:
Minor rant incoming: Something's not working? Maybe a service is down. `podman-compose ps`. Yep, it's that microservice that's still buggy. No issue, I'll just restart it: `podman-compose restart`. Okay now let's try again. Oh wait the issue is still there. Hmm. `podman-compose ps`. Right so the service must have just stopped immediately after starting. I probably would have known that if I was reading the log stream, but there is a lot of clutter in there from other services. I could get the logs for just that one service with `podman-compose logs --follow myservice` but that dies everytime the service dies so I'd need to run that command every time I restart the service. I could alternatively run `podman-compose up myservice` and in that terminal window if the service is down I could just `up` it again, but now I've got one service hogging a terminal window even after I no longer care about its logs. I guess when I want to reclaim the terminal realestate I can do `ctrl+P,Q`, but... wait, that's not working for some reason. Should I use ctrl+C instead? I can't remember if that closes the foreground process or kills the actual service.
What a headache!
