NAME
     nohup  -  run  a command immune to hangups, with output to a
     non-tty

SYNOPSIS
     nohup COMMAND [ARG]...
     nohup OPTION

DESCRIPTION
     Run COMMAND, ignoring hangup signals.

     --help
          display this help and exit

     --version
          output version information and exit

     If standard input is a terminal, redirect it from /dev/null.
     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 out-
     put.  To save output to FILE, use 'nohup COMMAND > FILE'.

     NOTE: 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.
