NOHUP(1)			  User Commands 			NOHUP(1)

NAME
     nohup - run a command immune to hangups, with output to a non-tty

SYNOPSIS
     nohup COMMAND [ARG]...
     nohup OPTION

DESCRIPTION
     Run COMMAND, ignoring hangup signals.

     --help
	    display this help and exit

     --version
	    output version information and exit

     If  standard  input is a terminal, redirect it from an unreadable file.  If
     standard output is a terminal, append output to  'nohup.out'  if  possible,
     '$HOME/nohup.out'	otherwise.  If standard error is a terminal, redirect it
     to standard output.  To save output to FILE, use 'nohup COMMAND > FILE'.

     Your shell may have its own version of nohup, which usually supersedes  the
     version described here.  Please refer to your shell's documentation for de-
     tails about the options it supports.

   Exit status:
     125    if the nohup command itself fails

     126    if COMMAND is found but cannot be invoked

     127    if COMMAND cannot be found

     -	    the exit status of COMMAND otherwise
