"nohup" keeps your process alive if the connection dies, but you can not interact with your process. Hence, when you start a nohup'd process, you need to take care that it saves the results on disk. Therefore I find "screen" better. In contrast to nohup, it gives you a console. It keeps your process *and* the (emulated) console alive, if the connection dies. Hence, after logging into you computer again (after your return or by ssh), you can restore the console, still being in your sage process. You can just continue to work. I was pointed to screen by Michael Abshoff.
