[geeks] Background process

[joshua d boyd]

I have a C proggy that I wrote, and I want to be able to run it on my
linux machine, and have it still running even if my terminal gets
disconnected.  Cron or at would launch it the way I want it launched, but
it seems to me that there should be an easier way to launch such a
program.  Any comments?  Tips for Solaris would also be helpful, if
solaris differs from linux.
