1. Introduction to UNIX

2. 2 Multitasking zForeground yCurrent Task yThe Command Running at the `$` Prompt zBackground yCommand Running Behind the Scenes yNot Interactive (e.g. text editor)

3. 3 Multitasking zBackground Tasks y&Perform Command in the Background $ who > whoson & [1] 10946 $ $ who > whoson & [1] 10946 $ zImportant Notes yLogoff Terminates Background Tasks yDo Not Overload The System yCan Not Require Keyboard Input yScreen Output May Not Be Desirable

4. 4 Multitasking zBackground Tasks ynohup UnixCommand xPrevents Command From Terminating on Logoff $ nohup who & nohup: appending output to 'nohup.out' $ $ nohup who & nohup: appending output to 'nohup.out' $ $ nohup who > whoson & $ $ nohup who > whoson & $ No output file specified. Output redirected to nohup.out Output redirected to whoson
