There may be a better way to run commands like seagull or top... but we do run some commands in the background and then either wait for them to finish or terminate them later. This is done either by getting the PID when running the command (at least in UNIX based OS's, when you run the command in the background, it returns the PID) or by getting it from a running process list.

But seagull will keep flushing the screen and output the result. When I use STAX to start seagull, it reports keybaord error. And I tried "top" command to see whether STAX could start "top" frontend, and it also reports error. Though I do not need the realtime monitoring result of seagull output on the screen, but I hope to find a way to start up seagull and stop them. Though I could put seagull to run in the background, but I could not stop that by terminate the job on STAX right? Could you kindly tell me how to deal with the commands like seagull or "top" which needs to reflushing the screen again and again, if let the process run in frontend, or how to stop them in STAX, if let them run in background. Thank you in advance.
