Can the output from xastir to the terminal be stopped somehow with a command or command string when xastir is started with the & option to put it into the background??

xastir 2>/dev/null &

which means "redirect file descriptor 2 aka stderr to the file specified".

to redirect output and stderr,

xastir >/dev/null 2>&1 &

which means "redirect file descriptor 1 to the file specified, then redirect file descriptor 2 to the same place".
