Right.  Cause the brain-dead csh was meant for *interactive* use, and
expects some human to *want* to know that the process got done.

Stuff

/bin/sh <\EOF
your process here &
EOF

into your .login.  If you need to have your process immune to SIGHUP,
SIGTERM, and the like, do something like:

/bin/sh <\EOF
trap '' 1 2 3 15
your process here &
EOF

Just another /bin/sh hacker,
