<br><br>That is, I want to run the program via "python myfile.py" and have it drop me back to the command line. The program should continue running until I kill it via it's PID, the machine shuts down, or the program itself decides to shutdown. It should _not_ die when I simply log-out, etc.
<br><br>Is there a standard library module to help with this?<br><br>-- Thank you<br><div class="WgoR0d"><br><br><br><br><br> ____________________________________________________________________________________<br>Looking for last minute shopping deals?
