close emacs). I have tried the shopt -u huponexit option but it does not work for nacground

process:

shopt -u huponexit

then if we close the xterm window; emacs will

quit.

I can manually disown the process:

NOHUP(1) User Commands NOHUP(1)


NAME
      nohup - run a command immune to hangups, with
output to a non-tty

SYNOPSIS
      nohup COMMAND [ARG]...
      nohup OPTION

DESCRIPTION
      Run COMMAND, ignoring hangup signals.

      --help display this help and exit

      --version
             output version information and exit



Yes I knew this command but it does not works in all
case: try (in X)
nohup emacs&
then close the xterm and you will see that emacs will
be closed!

It behaves as expected (ie emacs keeps running) when I do it!
