Hi folks,

When I execute a Sage script using the 'nohup' command [1], for instance

nohup sage test.sage>  out.txt&

the process is listed in the 'top' command display as 'python'. How do
I give user-generated names to this 'python' process for the purpose
of identification?


According to [1] it requires the procname library which can be found at [2].  
Remember you'll need to install it in Sage's version of python, not the system 
one.  So do everything with `sage -python` or `sage -sh`.

Cool! Do you happen to know if that prevents 'killall python' from working, then?
