i am fine with a message, just observing that the current message is not acurate: it is about stopped jobs, but also comes when there are running jobs it warns about killing the job giving the impression that any job would be killed, but only stopped jobs are killed. it should either be seperate messages or a more general one: There are stopped and/or background jobs. A second attempt to exit will enforce termination of stopped jobs. Background jobs may fail to run properly. i prefer seperate messages: There are stopped jobs. A second attempt to exit will enforce their termination. There are active jobs in the background. A second attempt to exit will succeed but may negatively affect the background jobs. To protect background jobs, use nohup. There are stopped and active jobs in the background. A second attempt to exit will enforce termination of stopped jobs while active jobs may be negatively affected. To protect active background jobs, use nohup. greetings, martin. -- eKita - the online platform for your entire academic life hackerspace beijing - http://qike.info -- chief engineer eKita.co pike programmer pike.lysator.liu.se caudium.net foresight developer realss.com foresightlinux.org unix sysadmin trainer developer societyserver.org Martin Bähr working in china http://societyserver.org/mbaehr/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ LIMITED TIME SALE - Full Year of Microsoft Training For Just $49.99! 1,500+ hours of tutorials including VisualStudio 2012, Windows 8, SharePoint 2013, SQL 2012, MVC 4, more.
