NOHUP(1)                      User Commands                     NOHUP(1)

NAME

       nohup - run a command immune to hangups, with output to a non-tty

SYNOPSIS

       nohup COMMAND [ARG]...
       nohup OPTION

DESCRIPTION

       Run COMMAND, ignoring hangup signals.

       --help display this help and exit

       --version
              output version information and exit

       If standard input is a terminal, redirect it from an unreadable
       file.  If standard output is a terminal, append output to
       'nohup.out' if possible, '$HOME/nohup.out' otherwise.  If
       standard error is a terminal, redirect it to standard output.  To
       save output to FILE, use 'nohup COMMAND > FILE'.

       Your shell may have its own version of nohup, which usually
       supersedes the version described here.  Please refer to your
       shell's documentation for details about the options it supports.

   Exit status:
       125    if the nohup command itself fails

       126    if COMMAND is found but cannot be invoked

       127    if COMMAND cannot be found

       -      the exit status of COMMAND otherwise
