I have a script that is to run continuously (sleeps 30 & loops) at root to
monitor an activity and if it sees a change, it runs another program. I
believe that can be run in the background, but don't recall how to do it.

If the script were called #!/bin/sh silentwatch
What would be the command to launch it in the bg...???

Thanks....!
