hello one and all,

ok, using python 2.7 and web2py 2.18.5 on centos or raspbian linux.  is 
there a way to start a python script file, a file that runs python all on 
its own from the command line interface, and start or spawn it under a 
web2py controller function, have web2py immediately, completely, and safely 
release from the running script, allow the script to continue to run, and 
then just return whatever html back to the user?  so the script will still 
be running even after the controller does its response and such.  and I 
wouldn't mind during the spawning process would return the pid when its 
originally spawned so I can kill it later on.

I guessing I would use subprocess.Popen but I can't seem to get web2py to 
immediately return and I would like verification that doing this won't hurt 
the multiprocessing or threads, or create some kind of instability in 
web2py or the server, or any of that kind of mess like that.

thank you in advance, Lucas
