Hello All, I use ubuntu.
I run some background processes from time to time. I start the processes like below from my terminal. perl script1.pl & perl script2.pl & and so on and now when the processes complete I see the following output in my term. chris@ubuntu:~/home/chris$ [1] Done perl script1.pl [2] Done perl script2.pl [3] Done perl script3.pl [4] Done perl script4.pl [5] Done perl script5.pl [7]- Done perl script6.pl [8]+ Done perl script7.pl chris@ubuntu:~/home/chris$ Can anyone please explain to me the significance of the minus - and plus + present at lines 7 and 8 ?
