Let's say in this situation the OP is in now. He can open a screen
session, "screen -S OOo". Then start the emerge of open office like
normal. If he wants to or needs to he can do a ctrl a then hit d and
detach the session. The emerge process knows no difference and keeps
the emerge going. If he started the screen session in Konsole or
something like that, he can log out of the GUI and then reattach it in a
console. All he has to do is a screen -r OOo to bring it back. If it
is still compiling away and all looks well, do a ctrl a then hit d to
detach again and let it carry on.
Let's not forget the situation where you are somewhere else and you'd
like to ssh in and see what's going on :)
