nohup equivalent for QNX?

Does anyone know of a utility equivalent to nohup for QNX 6? TIA

There isn’t really a similar command like nohup, but perhaps if you describe
what you’re trying to do we can suggest a different method.

A colleague of mine recalls starting a ‘nohup make > make.out’ on Solaris
from a telnet session so he could close the telnet session and have make
continue execution. Just curious if there is a similar solution for RTP.
Thanks

nohup is a common tool found on a few *NIX’s. One suggestion is to do a :

“on -d 2> erro.log > out.log&”

This should provide the same functionality you’re looking for.

Yes … and one of these *NIX’s is QNX4.25 … why is it not included in
QNX6 ??

This has already been flaged as a PR for the Tools.

I ported one of the BSD’s nohups a long time ago. It must have never wound
up on any of the shiplists.
