I actually use the following:
#!/bin/sh
# fork and forget == faf
("$@" >/dev/null 2>&1 &)
as faf in ~/bin[1]
so you can do things like faf emacs; and faf evince; etc. You can also
fix up the completion in bash/zsh so that completion works as usual
after faf.

Given that the odds of a miracle are one in one million, and events
which could be a miracle happen every second, the odds of not seeing a
miracle in a month are less than 8 in 100. Clearly miracles are not
all that miraculous.
