I would like to run processes that are not killed when I logout.
Peter--
Am I missing something here? Why not just run it in the background,
e.g,
%> r.mapcalc < huge_job.overnight > any_output_goes_here &
or
%> r.stats big.raster -the_works output=some_file &
These will continue after you logout. Alternatively, you can start the
job in the foreground to make sure all is well, stop it with a
CONTROL-Z (^Z) when you're satisfied, then type "bg" at the prompt to
move it into the background, where it will run merrily along while you
sleep.
Does this help, or did I misinterpret your question?
