[fpc-pascal]How to daemonize a program?

[Paul Aviles]

Hello all,

I know I can start a program with & at the end and will run in the
background. Is there a way to do this without the & symbol in Linux?

Thanks

Yes. The examples packaged with Free Pascal have a daemon.pp demo. That works 
(and also on FreeBSD iirc)
