Syllable

in shell, if I run something in background (for example "gzip -f &"), the input still be captured by the background processes.

in Linux:
[code]$ gzip -f &
[1] 5978
$ jobs
[1] + Stopped (tty input) gzip -f
[/code]

in Syllable 0.6.7:
[code]$ gzip -f &
[1] 80
$ jobs
[1] + Running gzip -f
[/code]

Hmm, that could also explain why I sometimes get an unexpected message that jobs are still running when I leave a shell. Thanks for the report.
