bsdsetsid --------- Simple implementation of util-linux *setsid* for FreeBSD. This was not tested on other BSD's or macOS but this probably works just fine. Dependencies ------------ - A C compiler - BSD Make Installation ------------ You can get bsdsetsid either through git or fossil. For fossil use: $ mkdir bsdsetsid $ cd bsdsetsid $ fossil clone \ https://chiselapp.com/user/JozanLeClerc/repository/bsdsetsid \ bsdsetsid.fossil $ fossil open --force bsdsetsid.fossil or for git: $ git clone git://jozanleclerc.xyz/jozan/bsdsetsid.git $ cd bsdsetsid Then build and install the program: $ make $ sudo make install clean Note that if you are one macOS, you need to install and use BSD Make instead of GNU Make. Usage ----- Example of usage: $ bsdsetsid st -e sh -c 'cowsay hello; zsh -i' $ exit Replace st and other arguments with any program you'd like to run detached from the current shell.
