Hey guys: Thank you very much for all your answers. I tried what you all suggested and seems to be working. Of course I put kedit as an example in my original post, but I was worried about my own C or FORTRAN programs which sometimes I leave running in the background and need to be sure they are not killed by just closing the console from where I started them.
BTW, how do I get "gvim"? I heard about it, but never tried it. And one@more thing on this issue of shells. I wanted to add color to "ls" command and found that all I needed was to put the "etc/DIR_COLORS" as " /home/cesar/.dir_colors" for example, edit to my liking, and then add alias ls='ls --color=tty' This works fine for the bash shell, just changing color to whatever I like in my .dir_colors, but cannot make it work in the csh shell. The csh shell always takes the default in "etc/DIR_COLORS".
