That works fine in Terminal, but Rev still waits for the command to
finish.  Quite stupid, really.

Under Windows, there is a "start" command that can be jury-rigged to do
this.  Not sure how to handle it under OS X/*nix (believe me, I've been
trying to figure that one out too).

Hmmmm, there's just got to be a way around this - - - - how about some sort of unix "start this command 2 seconds from now" type of call, where you'd get the control back in Rev immediately. Is there such a thing?

It's probably doable with something like
create a shell file (mine.sh)
put into it the command you want to run (i.e. mycommand & - note the & to make this a background task)
execute shell(mine.sh)


Sorry - been too many years since I last did it, and I don't have a Unix system to play on - but I have a couple of brain cells left that remember doing some variant of this
