Hi,

I would like to be able to launch some command in the console, and to be
able to close the terminal, the command being still evaluated, i.e. if I
launch gedit (I'm under GNOME), and that I close the console, gedit
closes too. (This is also the case with `gedit&', which is not
astonishing.)

Is it even possible?

Thanks folks.

You want something more like: `gedit & disown`. The "disown" will detach all background jobs currently attached to the terminal session. This _might_ be specific to BASH since it is a BASH builtin.

Also, you may want to look into tools like GNU Screen.
