Thanks. 'rox' used in that way works on the version I am using. 

This is the version that is available via synaptic for Ubuntu. Maybe that
is an old version, but apart from the pinboard oddities (which may be due
to something else) it works nicely here.

For the application I'm currently working on it is probably safer to use
'nohup' (now I have it pointed out to me!) as I want the result to also
work for those *not* using ROX. 

However your explanation makes me ask a follow-on question. Given what you
said, what is the safest approach for this for apps that other ROX users
might also use? Asking as I have done some 'demo' ROX apps for Archive, and
all being well want to cover this in future. Presumably from what you
explain just using 'rox' may not work for some versions. 

Slainte,

Jim
