process:
shopt -u huponexit emacs& then if we close the xterm window; emacs will
quit.

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!
