# nu_plugin_bg

This is a nushell pluging that attempts to start programs in the background.

  > bg {flags} 

Flags:

  -h, --help - Display the help message for this command

  -a, --arguments  - The arguments of the command.

  -d, --debug - Debug mode

  -p, --pid - Return process ID

Parameters:

  command : The command to start in the background.

Examples:

  Start a command in the background

  > bg some_command --arguments [arg1 --arg2 3]

```

## Known Issues

If you start a program that writes to stdout, you'll get an error. This what I get on my Mac and I'm not really sure what it means. It could have nothing to do with writing to stdout?

```nushell

❯ bg cat -a [cargo.toml] -d

Starting process: 'cat' with args '["cargo.toml"]'

cat: cargo.toml: Broken pipe (os error 32)

```
