rmp5s Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Just wondering, is it possible to "resume" Midnight Commander? I have it running on my laptop in a browser window. I went to "terminal" in the top right corner, entered "mc" and went from there...thinking I'll SSH in in the future to prevent this problem, but hey...live and learn... It's moving a TON of data and I kinda need to reboot. Will it continue moving or will that kill it? If it will continue, can I get back to it after reboot? Thanks, everyone. You're the best. 😁 Quote Link to comment
itimpi Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 If you kill the terminal window then it will kill the mc session. if you want to be able to run CLI type programs so that they continue to run even when you disconnect (and you can later re-connect to) then run them under the ‘screen’ program that can be installed via the Nerd Pack plugin.
