Hacky, but it'd work for me if it worked transparently. (Or, make /usr/bin/tmux et al be shell scripts which do the work.) My opinion is that if we can solve tmux, screen, and nohup (and possibly dtach), we'll hit the majority case, and we can document that to get this behavior in other cases, either 1) use one of those, 2) use the systemd-run command, or 3) change the config option. (Actually, although I am not volunteering, one idea would be for nohup to move into the systemd fold and be an alias to systemd-run with special behavior (as telinit is to systemctl).) -- Matthew Miller <mat...@fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
