i had need of a nohup-like program, but for a different signal. i ended up writing a util called "nosig" that allows full control over signal settings before execing another program: https://vapier.github.io/nosig/ https://vapier.github.io/nosig/man.html
i figure expanding nohup won't work well since its behavior is specified by POSIX. better to have a new tool. is there interest in merging into coreutils ? i'd be fine redoing the code style/idioms to align with the project, but didn't want to spend time on it if people weren't amenable to the idea :). -mike
