Under the assumption I wasn't using bash, how would this be accomplished?
In ksh turning the monitor off before starting an asynchronous command will prevent the notification. The disown command is a built-in to ksh, but only prevents the shell from sending a HUP signal to the child process.
Hello all,
How do I start a background process and save the process id to a file on my system. For example %wait 5 & will execute and print the process id. I can't figure out how to get it to a file. I've tried: > filename 0>filename 1>filename.
