Backgrounding across terminal sessions

Open samhh opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

For e.g. aerc, given it requires GPG to be unlocked and I'm content to leave aerc in memory.

I guess something like tmux, but without layouts and such? bg (<C-z>) but that's tied to a terminal.

Aside from struggling to get it to behave as expected, I don't love the idea of having to write progname &; disown each time I want to do this. At least ideally when foregrounding something it'd be nice if you could have it imply that exiting is disowning again.

tmux might be the way to go, tmate looks wonderful for pairing. Update: tmate was unfortunately buggy for those on the other end.
