*Entered: in emacs on Gemini PDA*

## Well... adventure singular and not really an adventure
So on my Gemini PDA, my phone, and other Android devices, I
use bash as my shell. I use direvent to keep my org files
and .emacs.d synced with Dropbox, and rsync to also sync
these directories with all three of my Pi's at home for
redundancy. This is all in scripts that are called from
direvent.conf. I also start up the emacs daemon for faster
launch. I would run these in my .bashrc as:
once each command finished. This bothered me. I found a
command *set +m* that the Internet said would stop these
messages (this is supposed to stop job control completely, a
tad bit sever), but in Termux at least, it does not.
Enter the *disown* command which detaches processes from the
shell. This did in fact do what I wanted. The final commands
living in my .bashrc in Termux is:
Note the *USER=""* is due to me setting USER to what I want
displayed in my PS1, because Android does not let you create
a user account usable in Termux. This breaks emacs, so I nullify
it before starting the daemon. Also, *&>dn* this is the redirect
for stdout and stderr to /dev/null. I made a symlink thusly:
```
~/ $ ln -s /dev/null dn
```
just to shorten up redirecting output.
The *disown* command has neatened up starting Termux and
solved a minor annoyance of mine. It is a small thing, but a
morning victory that I will take regardless.
