rundetach - run a program in the background

rundetach [-hV] program [ args ... ]

rundetach forks a child process into the background, detached from a controlling terminal, in its own session and process group. It then runs program with any additional arguments given in args.

If program does not contain a ``/'' slash character, rundetach will perform a shell-like search for the executable using the PATH variable in the current environment.

-h
Help. Print a brief usage message to stderr and exit.
-V
Version. Print the version number to stderr and exit.

rundetach exits with one of the following values:
0
program was invoked and completed successfully. In this case, the exit code is returned by the program, rather than by rundetach itself.
100
rundetach failed because of a usage error, such as an invalid command-line option or argument. In this case, rundetach prints a brief error message and usage help to stderr on exit.
111
rundetach failed due to some system or resource error. In this case, rundetach prints a brief diagnostic message to stderr on exit.
1-127
program was invoked and failed with its own non-zero exit status.
