I've usually used cmd.exe (command prompt) as my shell on Windows, but
I've recently begun using the cygwin bash shell. With cmd.exe, running
gvim from the command line caused gvim to start up and be completely
detached from the cmd shell, meaning I could continue using the cmd
shell while the gvim process was running and even close the cmd shell
without affecting the gvim process. But now with cygwin bash, whenever
I run gvim from the command line, it doesn't detach; it holds up the
shell until it exits at which point the shell returns. I know if I use
an ampersand on the end of the command then the gvim process will run
in the background and I'll be able to use the bash shell, but I still
won't be able to close the bash shell until the gvim process exits,
which I don't like. Why is this, and how can I fix this problem?
Thanks.
