Okay, after some experimentation, I came up with this: screen -dmS HalfLife ./hlds_run <blah blah blah>
Actually, instead of invoking hlds_run directly, I had the whole command line in a file already called starthl.sh. In that file I put the full command line for hlds_run (for me it's ./hlds_run -game ns +maxplayers 18 +map ns_eclipse -pingboost 2)... So what this does is start screen, detach the session and run hlds. Then if you want to access it you can just type 'screen -r' from the command line. I hope that answers your question. <quote who="Olivier Dony"> > On Tuesday, 29 July, 2003 15:04, AragonX wrote: >> Have you tried using screen? That's what I use.
