I have 2 shell scripts a.sh and b.sh, I'd like to start them and put them to background. I can do it with 2 commands: sh a.sh & sh b.sh &
Is it possible to use only 1 command? I tried sh a.sh & ; sh b.sh & But I got "syntax error near unexpected token `;'" It seems that I can do it with: (sh a.sh &) ; (sh b.sh &) But in this case, I cannot find those background processes with "jobs", since there are run in another shell. Is it possible to use only 1 command to do this and still can use command "jobs"? Thanks. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Linux Users Group.
