SYNTAX
nohup command [ arguments ]
FUNCTION
nohup executes a command with hangups
and quits ignored. If the output is not redirected
by the user, it will be sent to nohup.out.
If nohup.out is not writable in the current directory,
output is redirected to $HOME/nohup.out.
NOTE:
One runs a command with nohup when it is a
long process, or when one is about to logoff.
Let us use the nohup command in order to prevent
any quits and interrupts during text formatting:
Please type: nohup tbl price_list | nroff&
$PROMPT$
That is correct!
You've got it on the 2nd try.
Good, you understand the concept.
Please type nohup tbl price_list | nroff&
Please type nohup tbl price_list | nroff&
I guess I must type this for you:
$PROMPT$
FORGET1
nohup tbl price_list | nroff&
Observe the result on the terminal!

153
$PROMPT$
Note, that two processes, one for tbl and
one for nroff are running in background.
If the user logged off after typing the above
command, the output would be sent to nohup.out.
