Well, now that you've got me to thinking about it, tcsh on AIX will do
what you are saying also. I can start a background job, exit and the
background job still lives.
On NT using cygwinb18:
bash$ wish42 &
bash$ exit
This will leave wish running and remove the console window.
On NT using cygwinb19:
bash$ wish42 &
bash$ exit
This will leave wish running, will exit bash, but will leave the console
window up. This is true with or without job control. This is true even
with the disown of the job.
