[Wien] runsp_lapw dies offline

[Yurko Natanzon]

it is quite strange, runsp_lapw is just a csh shell script. what is
the value of your $SHELL? If it is /bin/csh, *maybe* all csh processes
die when you close the terminal window.

>nohup ... &
have you also tried "screen" instead of nohup? it is more powerful and
it works great, no matter which program are you running inside the
screen.

Yurko
