Ctrl-Z will suspend the process, then run the "bg" command to continue running it on background, then run "disown %1" to make your shell "forget" about the job and not send it a HUP (Hang-Up) signal when you log out from it. I works, unless your process will try to read from stdin, in that case it might be killed because there is no controlling tty (or something to that effect). In general, though, running it on a "screen" session is a much better alternative, because you then can detach (Ctrl-A, d) and reattach (screen -xRR) to continue watching the output. The only problem is that you must remember to use "screen" *before* you start running your process... HTH, Filipe
