SYNOPSIS
nohupCOMMAND[ARG]... nohupOPTION
DESCRIPTION
Run COMMAND, ignoring hangup signals.

If standard input is a terminal, redirect it from an unreadable file. If standard output is a terminal, append output to 'nohup.out' if possible, '$HOME/nohup.out' otherwise. If standard error is a terminal, redirect it to standard output. To save output to FILE, use 'nohup COMMAND > FILE'.
Your shell may have its own version of nohup, which usually supersedes the version described here. Please refer to your shell's documentation for details about the options it supports.
Exit status:
- 125
if the nohup command itself fails
- 126
if COMMAND is found but cannot be invoked
- 127
if COMMAND cannot be found
- -
the exit status of COMMAND otherwise
