Running the script with it has the desired result.
Sorry for the delay. Indeed, I can confirm it works like a charm: $ cat test_pgid.sh set -m ( sleep 1 ) & i=$! echo "Main shell has: $(ps -o pid,pgid $$)" echo "Sub-shell has: $(ps -o pid,pgid $i)" wait $i $ dash test_pgid.sh & $ Main shell has: PID PGID 80074 80074 Sub-shell has: PID PGID 86666 86666 [1] + Done (sleep 1) [1] Done dash test_pgid.sh As a consequence, fpsync[1] can now be started in the background, great! Thanks a lot to both of you :) Cheers, Ganael.
