re-attaching STDOUT

2006-04-05 Thread Nathan Vidican
say one runs a command like so: tar tvzpf _some_big_tar_file_will_take_hours_to_list.tgz & then later I exit... leaving it running (note the '&') How do I later return and grab the output still coming from that command; where does the output of a command left running in the background go to?
