How do I create a console (well, actually, console-less) process that I
can leave running at background- that is, no need for terminal? Under
unix, I would just do
if (fork()) { exit(0); }
// I'm in background now
but as I compile that on not-so-old gcc 2.95.2 on win32 (cygwin default
compiler or whatever, not mingw32) and run it, the terminal won't detach
and let me quit. And if I kill it, the child dies also.
I tried searching archives but found nothing useful; however, from one
post over two years old I got the impression I should have to
detach something. How does this happen?
