Subject: M-x compile vs. background jobs
Date: Sat, 21 Aug 2004 10:18:50 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87ekm1ter9.fsf@jidanni.org> (raw)
Like crappola man,
$ cat Makefile
a:
gv file.pdf #or use xpdf
b:
gv file.pdf & #or use xpdf
In M-x compile, only a works. In *shell*, both work.
Wait. This sometimes works:
c:
nohup gv file.pdf &
This always works:
d:
nohup gv file.pdf & sleep 1
Anyways, hope the child killer is fixed or at least documented.
I don't see nohup mentioned in M-x compile's Info page.
emacs-version="21.3.1". I recall we mentioned this before.
