The only problem with backgrounding a process that forks is if it expects to be getting process group signals... (eg. zwgc -ttymode knows to exit when it receives a HUP, which it will get from the pgrp of a tty session; X applications cannot really expect to be getting such signals as the session leader is not sending any such signals). -Richard
