Hello Cesar,

Wednesday, May 1, 2002, 9:31:32 AM, you textually orated:

CM> Hello everyone:

CM> Suppose I run a program under the bash shell from the
CM> console in KDE or GNOME using a command like this

CM> $ kedit prog1.c &

CM> If I kill the console (using the mouse) from which I issue
CM> that command, the process "kedit" also gets killed!!!).

CM> However, if I do the same using the csh shell, I do not
CM> have that problem.  (the console is killed but not the
CM> process "kedit").

CM> Why the bash shell cannot keep that process running?

At least in KDE you can save yourself from worrying about this at all. Hit
Alt-F2 and you get a run dialog. Type your command in and hit enter. It has
to be one of the handiest things about KDE. (Note: If Gnome has a similar
feature I am not aware of it.) It also has a history of commands you've
entered, so you can just use a pulldown for previous commands.

Have fun,
--
