Well, /etc/init.d/skeleton is no more. There is init-d-script(5) instead.

As you probably know, you could copy LSB header from init-d-script(5);
there also enumeration of override function names.

In your particular case, you want to define `do_start_override' and
`do_stop_override'. Is it good enough?

Oh, you know, I would add vim syntax highlighting for these special
names and variables. But it is irrelevant to your request, I guess?
