How can I launch Mathematica jobs in background? I would like to be able to set up calculations that take long time and log out of the system. I am using SGI (IRIX 6.4). Currently the program is written as Mathematica notebook; does it have to be rewritten as a plain file or one can evaluate the definitions using the Front End, and then quit the Front end leaving the jobs running? thanks you very much Tatyana Polenova
