Python Processes for Win32

I have a daemon type script (daemon.py -- we'll say) that I would like
to have run continuously. I'd like to be able to do something like
this:

daemon.py start

.... and then to have it stop I'd like to do this:

daemon.py stop

I am having a hard time googling for a clue as to how to accomplish
this. If anyone can point me in the right direction, I'd really
appreciate it.

thanks,

Harlin
