FBSD 4.7R
---------
the following appears to be different behavior than i have
experienced in the past, and somewhat unusual.  please reply
off list as well if you reply.

$ startx &

is the command above supposed to operate like ^Z (suspend)?
i would not think so.  i would think that such commands
"detach" from the terminal and run in the background
regardless of further commands in the foreground; however,
following the command above with "fg" brings the process to
the foreground, as if one had started a process in the
foreground and suspended it with ^Z.  is this a bug?

thank you.
