New version:

@item @code{reload} (default: @code{#f})
The @code{reload} field allows Shepherd to reload the service's
configuration files without restarting.  It is an @code{action}
(@pxref{Slots of services,,, shepherd, The GNU Shepherd Manual}) and is
given as a G-expression that gets expanded in the Shepherd configuration
file (@pxref{G-Expressions}).
