Syntax for completely launching and disowning a process
Created by: japm48
Feature request
I would like to see something similar to &!
in zsh (documentation).
This allows launching e.g. firefox &!
and keep it running even after the shell (and the terminal window) is closed.
In addition, I would like to see something like &!!
(not implemented in ZSH or any other shell I know of) which also detaches stdin
and stdout
from the spawned process, as some GUI programs can be noisy. This would be a lot cleaner than having to manually redirecting to /dev/null
.
