[Gambas-user] execute shell command then exit

[werner 007]

With the shell you should have the possibility to separate a calling process
from parent, or to run as a background process.
I think a usable command could be fork, or call the process with a closing
"&".
This is only meant as guidance, because whether this is quite true ...?
